Hi, I am a pianist, composer, teacher, and multi-instrumentalist originally from upstate New York. I am passionate about all of the above, but I consider teaching to be the most immediately rewarding. In 2008 I completed my degree in music at the State University of New York in Fredonia. Shortly afterwards, I made a journey to the west coast and found a home in the SF bay area. I got involved in the vibrant music scene as quick as possible and played with as many different types of musicians as I could find. Read More

Therefore, I like to record my students quarterly for a few minutes within a lesson to show the mass amounts of improvement they will accomplish. Read More

Music has gifted me with a second chance at life, and I feel that it is my duty to share this gift with the world so that it may change and embellish the lives of others. I believe in the individual and the vast assortment of personalities and skill-sets that they bring to the table. Just like musics ability to enhance our way of thinking, I strongly believe that as musicians, we all have something to gain from others, no matter what their skill level is. Read More
