Instruments: Piano Saxophone Keyboard

Hello, Im very excited about teaching students the very important basic principles of music when helping them realize their voice and ability to write and perform their own original music. I graduated from Berklee College of Music in 2008 with a degree in Professional Music and a focus in classical composition/jazz pedagogy/music theory/jazz performance. Ive had the wonderful pleasure of touring over 40 countries and recording with great artists such as Esperanza Spalding, Terri Lyne Carrington, Jeff Tain Watts, Rudimental, Ravi Coltrane, John Blake, Kimberly Thompson, Vijay Iyer, Tyshawn Sorey, Peter Evans, and many more amazing artists.

Welcome, children and adults! I want my piano students to feel like successes! I'm always proud of them. Very young children are shown how to play, so that once they learn, they feel good about themselves. As they become more experienced, I begin to let go of the reigns and encourage them to figure it out, with my help. Together we first review the pieces, and then I step in when there's a new concept or he or she appears uncertain. Read More

I like to take a holistic approach in teaching beginners by incorporating Technique, Ear Training, Music Theory, and Improvisation right from the start. This allows the student to quickly be able to learn songs by ear and write their own music. For more advanced and older students, I prefer to see where they are in their first lesson and hear what their goals are. Some people do not care if they can read music or not and that is totally cool! Read More

In my lessons, we will work on technique and sight reading as well as improvisation and learning songs. Read More
