My background is in musical theater and I have sung, acted and danced my way around the world. I love what I do and love to share this passion with my students.

Instruments: Piano Voice Music
I began teaching voice in 1998, in Vienna, Austria. The following year, I was asked to teach at the Vocal Jazz Department of Gustav Mahler Conservatory where I taught for 5 years. During that time, my private teaching studio also grew, where I coached singers, songwriters and pianists. In 2004, I moved to Los Angeles, taught piano at a private music school, accompanied a Eurythmy class at The Waldorf School in Pasadena, and eventually built my own business as a piano teacher.

Instruments: Voice
I provide a care-free and fun environment for students where they have 100% permission to express themselves through music and make mistakes. No two students are the same and I make sure to cater to each individual student's needs and pacing. I reward students with stickers and high-fives when I see that they are taking corrections and improving. Lastly, I always give positive constructive criticism to each student and encourage them to be the best version of themselves when singing. “If I cannot fly, let me sing.” – Stephen Sondheim Read More
Instruments: Piano Voice Trumpet Trombone Synthesizer Recorder Euphonium French Horn Music Keyboard
For the younger beginning students, I usually start with Alfred's Beginning Piano Series. Once the student has a grasp of the fundementals, I will begin introducing major and minor scales as well as solo repertoire. For my adult students I will see their level of ability and musical interests, find appropriate material based on their taste and formulate the lesson to include fun stuff as well as build proper mechanics. For my horn lessons depending on the skill level I being with Essential Elements or the Arban book and build from there incorporating solos of the greats, and songs that they want to learn to play.

Instruments: Piano Voice Keyboard
Each student is different and as such, each student's approach to learning music is different. While still addressing your personal goals, I work to help you achieve those goals and interests, but also utilize my own experiences in teaching to foster deeper growth. I focus on exploration, keeping the study interesting, all while understanding that each student can be at any level, and learn at any speed. I believe that both talent and potential must be met with effort for growth to be achieved, and that all students need some form of discipline and encouragement and make sure to serve both at every lesson.

Instruments: Saxophone
What does a normal practice session look like for you?
I typically start with the overtone series for warming up. It's sort of a stretch for my jaw muscles before I get into strengthening them. Scales (full range of the horn) to establish technique and control over my fingers. It's important to keep your fingers close to your horn while you're playing even when not pressing down a certain key. The closer your touch, the faster you're able to play. I usually end with playing along to tracks to help with my time and then sight reading a transcribed solo to end.
If you have a Music Degree, what is it in (Performance, Education, Musicology, Theory, Composition, etc) and why did you choose that degree?
My major is in Jazz Performance and Composition. I chose this specific major because I was inspired from a live show performed at my school when I was 15. It was a nine piece ensemble with five horns and four rhythm section players. They played some original tunes and some arrangements of some jazz songs that I really took a liking to. Their soloing blew my mind because I had never heard instrumentalist play so well together from memory. Their professionalism and sound quality really drove my interests to the next level.
What is your dream piece to perform and why?
I suppose my dream tune to play over effortlessly would be countdown by John Coltrane because it's upbeat and the changes are quite difficult to interpret. I poses a challenge because to get the speed up to par, you first have to master many techniques and be able to get around your instrument effortlessly without hesitation. The next step is to hear the harmony and be able to make shapes over the changes that make melodic sense. On top of all that, you're interacting with the other band members and trying to create a real connections that's enjoyable and exciting to the listener.
If you weren't a musician what do you think you'd be doing instead?
If I wasn't a musician, I'd like to think that I'd be in the arts in some other way. Perhaps a painter or cartoonist. I loved art class as a kid but never believed that I could do it for a living so it never sparked my interest as a career, only a hobby. I remember winning competitions for art class and receiving strong grades as well. But as a kid, I always had a dream of becoming an architect for houses. I also still have a desire to give back to the community in some way, maybe as a volunteer fireman.
