Instruments: Piano Voice Ukulele
I am a pragmatic teacher. I coach my students in order that they succeed in all areas of life, not just in the performing arts field. My lessons ensure that the students mind and body are working optimally. I published a thesis at Sonoma State University, which validates that those who sing and play piano, are more likely to attend graduate school as well as think with excellent cognitive ability.

Instruments: Voice
Yes, I recognize this sounds a bit "out there" but my point is we need to focus less on good v. bad. Why not celebrate the gift of every sound we make? The work we create must have a purpose. I believe that students should be given a platform and support to create something beyond the traditional recital. My dream is for them to create works to take back to their own communities in order to foster and nurture dialogue to make an impact on social change. Read More
Instruments: Voice
I have a long history of voice, theory of music and piano teaching from the beginning of my singing career. I come from family of teachers and musicians and feel that despite of my love for stage, teaching is my true destination.Even while I was very busy performing internationally, I always enjoyed teaching, and took time to accumulate as much as possible of knowledge and experience in order to prepare myself for the next and very important step in my life becoming a voice teacher.

Instruments: Piano Voice
Since my teaching philosophy is that every piano lesson should be fun, I tailor each lesson according to the student's age and interests. For young beginners, I choose method books that contain fun songs. I also teach music theory through story telling. For older students, I tailor each lesson according to their interests.However, I encourage them to learn Classical music, so that students develop good musicality. My goal is that all my students enjoy music for the rest of their lives. Read More
Instruments: Piano Voice
For beginning students, my aim is always to nourish the love of music that brought the student into the studio. I am comfortable exploring any musical style or ambition with my students, and relish in learning alongside my pupils. For the young and old alike, I emphasize music literacy through piano basics - I believe that a basic understanding of the keyboard is essential for any meaningful musical education. With my voice students, I focus on synthesizing mind, body and spirit to unlock the true potential within every voice. Read More
Instruments: Piano Voice
My teaching experience began in undergrad, our teachers started a vocal pedagogy class in which we were required to have a student. Also in undergrad we participated in a studio repertoire class where we would sing for one another. We watched our teacher give constructive criticism and participated in giving compliments and criticism as well. Read More
Instruments: Voice
I was born and raised in the Bay Area and found my passion for music at a young age. Since then, I have been fortunate enough to grow as a musician and experience some of the most wonderful moments of my life on stage. I received my Associate of Arts in Music from West Valley College in 2014. After which I received my Bachelor of Music from San Jose State University in 2017. Read More
Instruments: Flute Piccolo Music
When did you decide to become a professional musician? Was it a gradual decision or was there a defining moment for you?
I always just identified as a musician so there was question that I would go into this as a profession. The part that was confusing was choosing what my major would be and then realizing that my college degree doesn't necessarily define what I'd do in my musical career. I actually quit flute playing for about 2 years after I left grad school (although I was still teaching music classes and repair woodwinds), and had a random opportunity to get back into performing in 2017.
Does music run in your family? Tell us a little about your musical family members.
Nope! I have 4 siblings and just 2 of us happen to be professional musicians. No one in our extended family really plays instruments and our parents think sheet music is totally foreign. My sister who's a professional jazz musician teaches at a university, freelances, and writes music for her jazz combos. We are on opposite ends of the musical spectrum.
What does a normal practice session look like for you?
All of my students have this basic practice setup:
o warm up on long tones
o fundamental exercises
o scales and arpeggios
o etude
o focus piece
I have detailed practice techniques to use with these basic practice elements depending on what needs to be improved for the week
What advice do you have about practicing effectively?
Quality over quantity. 30 minutes of focused, accurate practice with a metronome will always be more effective than 2 hours unorganized practice. Come up with a routine and you'll be surprised how quickly you're able to learn!
How do I know if my child is ready to start lessons?
If your child shows an interest in their instrument without it feeling forced, they're able to focus on one task for 30 minutes, and begin to ask detailed questions about their instrument, they're ready to start lessons. I personally recommend that if your child is starting beginning band, allow them to get used to the musical setting before beginning intensive 1-on-1 studies.
When will I start to see results?
This part is up to you. I focus on immediate results by providing efficient and proved practice techniques. It takes some discipline to practice the way I teach you, but you will see better results if you trust the process.
Have any of your students won awards or been selected for special honors? How have they succeeded?
One of my first students I've ever taught has gone on to become a Haynes artist, win international awards, and now studies at Harvard University and a prominent conservatory. She continues flute studies while she also pursues a different profession, and this is what I love to see! Of course, this is a text book success story, but no matter if your flute playing leads you to an Ivy League school or to the living room performing for your loved ones, success is based on the student and what makes them fulfilled.
