For my piano students I will start with a beginning piano book and we will move forward as you progress. Read More

I've been teaching voice full time for five years. Many students come to my studio in West Hollywood, or I am available to meet at Pierre's Fine Pianos in Santa Monica.

I approach teaching by focusing on the student. I find out what they need and want first. We set realistic goals together and I give them the tools to help them reach their goals. I don't want my students to be entirely dependent on me. I like to give them exercises to do on their own in between lessons so that time doesn't go to waste and they can see quicker improvement with their own practicing. Read More

I really love seeing my students come into their musicianship and artistry! I know that, it is really important that each student flourishes at his or her own pace.

I like to tailor everything to the students needs and desires while also giving them a broad knowledge to build from. Read More

For beginning students, I introduce musical theatre and classical repertoire and the fundamentals of music theory. As the student progresses, I include advanced exercises used to strengthen the voice and have them learn various styles of singing based on their interests and career path.

For students interested, I will also enter them into competitions and auditions where they can expand their performance experience. Read More
