Instruments: Piano, Voice, Keyboard

For as long as I can remember, music has played a large part in my life. By the age ten, I already knew that music would be more than just a hobby for me, it would become my career. I have been singing and playing piano for over 25 years. I received a BS in music industry studies with an emphasis on business, from the University of Colorado Denver in 2008. I have extensive experience in performance and the music industry as a business, and have had the pleasure of experiencing the local music scene first hand while playing in bands. Read More

Instruments: Piano, Voice

I am a creative and innovative instructor who loves helping each student find their voice and pursue their unique interests musically.  I completed my Masters in Music at Northwestern University in 2015, where I was featured in many opera productions and directed several student produced operas.  I also sought to create and present exciting multimedia recitals that combined classical music with other art forms.  I have performed with prestigious summer programs both in the United States, such as the Aspen Music Festival, and internationally with such programs as Music in the Marche. For the last 3 years, I taught voice and piano lessons with Flatts and Sharpe Music Company in Chicago and have extensive experience teaching online lessons.

The best reward for me is to see how students progress. I am happy to know that I took part in that process. I also love helping students to understand the principles and applications of music theory, as well as to develop their ear with various aural skills and rhythm exercises. I strive to pass the life-long passion for music to my students in the hope that it will last for the rest of their lives. Read More

Depending on the instrument and skill levels of the student I have different methods. For guitarists I typically like to start by learning techniques and building strength in their fingers before we move into theoretical concepts. For pianists I begin with technique but with also teaching them the musical staff and getting them started with reading music. Ultimately my method depends on the individual needs of the student. The lesson is always aimed at having the most fun as possible, all while learning and expanding our musical knowledge. Read More

Instruments: Piano, Guitar, Organ, Lap Steel Guitar, Ukulele, Keyboard, Electric Guitar, Classical Guitar, Acoustic Guitar

Through the years, I have compiled sheet music that I wrote out myself of songs that were hard to find/and easier to read. I have hundreds if not thousands of these songs. I start beginner guitar with Neil young songs because they are slow and use basic chords. Also a Pink Floyd song. It has worked for years. From there I teach a Bob Dylan song and sweet home Alabama.
