Instruments: Piano Guitar Bass Guitar Keyboard Electric Guitar Classical Guitar Acoustic Guitar
I have been teaching guitar and piano since high school. Throughout college I began to take on more students and teach group classes in guitar and jazz. I've had the opportunity to learn from some of the best music educators around. The study of musical pedagogy is a top priority for me. I'm a firm believer in the concept of students learning at their own pace. The last thing I want to do, is make you feel stress when playing/performing! Read More
Instruments: Piano
Learning piano is fun. I started playing at a very young age and when I mean young, I mean really young. I started playing the piano when I was 3 1/2 and I had no idea what I was doing back then but my Mom persistently sent me to music school. Today, I am so thankful that because of her persistence and patience, I was able to become a great pianist. There were a lot of rough patches when the music got really difficult to play and I wanted to quit multiple times but despite the challenges, my Mom was my #1 fan and kept encouraging me through the process.

Instruments: Piano Violin Trombone Saxophone Clarinet
All of my students, depending on age, go through my curriculum which not only focuses on solo repertoire but learning how to be an essential part of any ensemble. I make sure I plan individual lessons and create overall schemes of work for my pupils so they can develop knowledge of materials and repertoire for them at different stages of their musical development. I extend my own musical experience by becoming familiar with the music my pupils listen to and music that is assigned from their primary music instructor, as well as have them become familiar with other musical styles and by developing improvisation and vocal skills.

Instruments: Piano Saxophone Flute Clarinet
I began teaching as a student at OSU, then started teaching shortly after moving to California. I have been fortunate to have experience teaching students both individually and in group settings. My private students have been of all ages and different levels. One commonality I have found between students in these different settings is that they all have different goals and things that motivate them. With this in mind, I try to provide lessons that meet the individual needs of the student, while also keeping them engaged. Read More
Instruments: Bass Guitar Double Bass
Why did you choose your primary instrument?
It was entirely by accident. I loved music as a kid, and I was trying to learn how to play the guitar. I was 21, and I was strumming a guitar in the garage of my friends house, his dad had told me I was strumming really hard on the guitar. He told me, I should try the bass. Ever since then, I have been obsessed with the instrument. Eventually I moved on to upright bass when I had the money and skills to play the instrument.
What musical accomplishments are you most proud of?
Well it's number of musical accomplishments I am really proud of. The first being in the pit band for Cypress College's rendition of "Grease". The theater department had wanted to perform "Grease" in 2018, and I had been performing with their jazz ensemble. The leader of our ensemble gave the job to play bass for the pit band, and it was an amazing experience. I got to work with phenomenal musicians, see the incredible actors, dance and act, and hear the roar of the crowd during the really exciting pieces. Another accomplishment, I am proud of is receiving a scholarship from Friends of Jazz, during my days of community college. I had doing well in the jazz ensemble I was in, transcribing the music we had been given, and the band director took notice. I didn't know at the time but he had signed me up for the scholarship, and I was incredibly grateful. It was for 400 dollars, and made me feel I could really make some money and receive acclaim for my musical skills. Even though it's not really considered a musical accomplishment, but transferring to a university in music performance for me feels like an accomplishment. I am really proud of the work I have done, and I have never imagined I would be able to transfer to a university for music, on top of that, I am also receiving some scholarship money for my music studies.
Did you have a teacher that inspired you to go into music? How did they inspire you?
My first upright bass teacher was Roger Shew. When I was at my community college, I wanted to take lessons so I emailed Mr. Shew so I could begin taking my lessons. Seeing him play with ease all of the things he taught and told me to work on was incredibly inspiring. He doubled on both jazz and classical studies. He had the best walking bass line feel I have ever listened to, and could effortlessly play with a bow, classical or jazz music. Mr. Shew made me want to be a better musician, and I did my best every day to improve. Unfortunately, he passed two years ago and I was deeply heartbroken. I miss him everyday and I wish to pass down the important information he gave me onto my future students. I am currently taking lessons with the incredible Luther Hughes, who has had a phenomenal career as a jazz bassist and I hope I can teach the information that he has given me and pass it down to future students.
