I ask all of my students to be prepared for their lessons with a notebook and pencil for lesson notes and assignments. I ask them to bring any materials they have and will often recommend books and supplemental material I have had success with. I believe in writing down notes that help students understand what they are learning, exactly what students should practice, and setting goals for their practice and overall progress. Read More

I am a passionate and driven leader striving to bring light to the world through music. I started piano with my grandma when I was two and picked up the violin when I was eight. I was graced with a lot of opportunities to perform in middle school and high school with fiddle groups and jazz fusion groups as well as a quartet, playing weddings and special functions before I entered my undergrad.

Instruments: Piano, Voice

Every student is assigned music.  Beginning students often start in lesson books.  I use the Bastien book series for my youngest students, Alfred books for ages 6-11, and Bastien Books for students older.  As students grow and become more advanced I also assign solo pieces from other sources to supplement a students progress.  I tailor every lesson to fit a students particular strengths and weaknesses and no two lessons are ever the same.  For all levels I try to make the lessons fun and interesting.

There is no way for learning an instrument to be a quick process but little by little it can progress to a great accomplishment. Read More
