Effective music education is both developmentally and culturally appropriate: By working with the student to understand their interests, I hope to provide them with an experience that will enrich their musical and social life outside of the work we do together. Through infancy, I believe Music Learning Theory is effective for developing musical and linguistic skills. If a student in toddlerhood/childhood shows that they have a preferred way to express themselves musically, I will tailor lessons around the Kodaly (voice), Orff (instrumental), or Dalcroze (dance) philosophies.

I am a guitarist, singer songwriter and composer, who loves working with students to help them develop a personal and creative playing and writing style. I place emphasis on learning through creating original compositions and improvisations. I think its extremely rewarding to be encouraged to put your own voice in to your music, as well as learn from other peoples ideas. I graduated from the SUNY Purchase Music Conservatory where I majored in Studio Composition. Read More

I see teaching that each student will be different and learn at different rates. Having work with all levels of students, I understand that and recognize that I want to tailor my lessons to the students needs so they can be most successful.
