Instruments: Voice Music
Nothing is more rewarding than seeing one of my students develop a passion for music, pursue their dreams and make them come true! Therefore, it's important that each student progresses at his or her own pace. Because we all have different begging points. We will set the goals and achieve them together! Acknowledging accomplishments helps fuel a students desire to progress, and makes students eager to learn more. Singing is a beautiful and interesting process. Read More
Instruments: Piano Voice Keyboard
I am a passionate music teacher that strives towards my students' successes. I graduated in 2009 from University of the Arts with a Bachelor of the Arts in Music Composition. My love for music has lead me to perform with my latin/rb band Buddy Roc The Heartbreak Kids all over the Greater Philadelphia area. In October 2017, we were featured as Coors Light Artist of the Month where they sponsored my video for my song "Next Man". Read More
Instruments: Piano Voice
If students have an interest in learning popular styles, I make sure to incorporate reading jazz/pop symbols into their lessons. When students are able, I have them learn scales and key signatures. For my voice students, I find it most important to pick literature that will be healthy for students to sing, as well as enrich their vocal development. For younger students, I like to both work on folk songs and music theater, and appropriate popular music if they are interested. Read More

My teaching style is relaxed and organic. Don't get me wrong, we will work hard! But it will be fun and enriching. I teach my students to appreciate the music they make, and to listen to themselves for what is working well, in addition to what can be improved. At the end of each lesson, the student and I collaborate to make goals for daily practice. Every few weeks, my students and I collaborate on goals for next few weeks and the next few months.

Instruments: Piano Voice
For piano students ages 5-9, I generally use the Faber and Faber Piano Adventures series. For piano ages 10-12 I use the Older Beginner series. My teen and adult students normally work out of and Adult All in One series. For more advanced piano students Ill work repertoire, theory and scales/technique as needed/desired by the student. For voice, I tailor the lessons to the students age, interest and ability. Read More
Instruments: Voice
Maintaining vocal health is my number one priority, no matter the level. I can help you achieve a healthy belt or expand your range. Placement is key! I start every lesson with 30 minutes of vocal warm-ups and encourage you to warm-up on your own between lessons. Your voice is a muscle and it needs to be taken care of. If you have an audition to prepare for, whether it is a college music program or a stage performance, I can help you choose the correct material and make sure you are at your best. Read More
Instruments: Piano Voice Flute
If you have a Music Degree, what is it in (Performance, Education, Musicology, Theory, Composition, etc) and why did you choose that degree?
I have a Bachelor of Music in Vocal Performance, Bachelor of Arts in Music Theory & History, and Master of Music in Vocal Performance.
What is your dream piece to perform and why?
I would love to performance the role of Anne in "The Rake's Progress" by Stravinsky. It is one of the most beautiful 20th century operas I know.
Does music run in your family? Tell us a little about your musical family members.
I have a long lost uncle who is a renowned violist. I didn't discover him until a few years ago and was overjoyed to have him in my life as he is the only other professional musician in my family!
If you weren't a musician what do you think you'd be doing instead?
I would be a veterinarian. I love animals and, strangely, always planned on being a veterinarian in spite of my studying music as a child. It wasn't until my senior year of high school that I realized I could pursue music for a living and I haven't looked back.
Did you have a teacher that inspired you to go into music? How did they inspire you?
I've been playing music since I was a small child, but one teacher in particular that inspired me to pursue collegiate and graduate education in music was my high school band and choral director. He was so committed to his students and always gave 100% no matter what he did. It was so fun and beneficial working with him during those years and he really expanded my love for music.
What do you think is the hardest thing to master on your instrument?
I believe the hardest thing to master on any instrument is an awareness of how far one has come and allowing oneself to celebrate that! Sometimes, we get caught up in always trying to improve and we lose sight of how much we've already learned. I think it is so important to celebrate tiny victories and be kind to oneself at all stages of musicianship. We're never done learning so enjoy the process!
How do I know if my child is ready to start lessons?
Knowing whether a child is ready for lessons depends on many things, not least of all physical development (I.e. can they hold the flute upright?). Has your child expressed a desire to learn an instrument? Do they seem excited about it? Do they understand that practice is vital to learning new skills? If so, I encourage jumping in! Even if your child has some questions or hesitations, I recommend trying lessons out and keeping an open dialogue with them as lessons progress to make sure they are still invested emotionally and mentally and are not only continuing to learn but are having fun!
What advice do you have about practicing effectively?
When learning a new skill or a new song, I highly recommend approaching it in short and frequent sessions. Consistency has proven more valuable than, say, practicing once or twice for a long time and not reviewing the new skills for 4-5 days at a time. Most especially with younger students, I encourage parents to start with shorter times of 10-15 minute sessions, once or twice a day, and move up from there.
