Instruments: Piano Drums Djembe

I find it extremely rewarding to see students enjoy the music they're playing and accomplish more than they ever thought possible. For this reason, I work with students at a pace conducive to their level. Although, I will challenge their ability, it will be done in such a way where the student can see their progress no matter how big or small that may be. I also encourage students to come with music that they enjoy listening to and would like to play. Read More

Music in the school system is taught backwards.

I have taught in music schools and studios since 2006 in the Philadelphia area, Northern New Jersey, and South Florida.

I have the ability to accurately asses where the student is at both within their musical mindset and level of development and keep the student interested as well as challenging them to grow utilizing a combination of an action based strategy, positive reinforcement, musical perspective and realization techniques, and WORK both in the lesson and at home.

This summer, I graduated with my MA in Expressive Arts Therapy in Switzerland. Read More
