These engagements were all the more based on individual curriculum, and I embraced my most valuable assets, being patience and understanding. Read More

I'm a passionate professional performer and teacher with extensive real world music industry experience. Performing with various artists from all differing genres, both live performance and on records, yields results with my students.

I usually start my piano and vocal students with playing and singing both major and minor scales while using proper fingering and while breathing properly on this musical journey. On the other hand once a student shows and develops better fundamentail skills, then I'll start introducing intermediate musical concepts and ideals. Then we can focus on getting prepared for a great performance either at school,church,or home in front of family and friends. Read More
