Instruments: Violin Viola Fiddle
I have taught beginning violin using many different methods and books, including but not limited to the Suzuki Method, Essential Elements for Strings, and All For Strings books. However, I have found that the best way to engage students and maintain progress is not to keep too strictly to any one method, but to find what best suits each individual. I also incorporate a mix of transcribed fiddle tunes and/or popular music pieces to provide variety and keep the material fun! Read More

Instruments: Guitar
I'm a very easygoing and straightforward person, but as a musician I take what I do very seriously. I love being surrounded by fellow musicians of all types and hope to guide and spark interest in people who want to try and learn how to play the guitar. I have an AA in Music Performance from Palomar College, where I first began classical guitar studies. Before studying classical music at Palomar, I took seven years of lessons with a local studio guitarist who taught me to play on both electric and acoustic guitar, fingerstyle and picking. Read More
Instruments: Guitar Drums
I moved to Los Angeles in 2013 to attend UCLA, where I studied Neuroscience, allowing me to learn in-depth about the human body, the mind, and how it learns. During my time there, I was also able to take a plethora of classes in the UCLA Herb Alpert School of Music, learning skills such as recording, producing, engineering, and session musicianship from some of Los Angeles' most in-demand drummers, producers, and musicians.

Instruments: Voice
My musical teaching experience can be traced back to my early years in college where I started my own music studio based out of a church. From there, I moved on to a professional school where I was able to work with mainly children and teenagers. As I gained more teaching and academic experience, I began to branch out and build my own private studio out of my home. Aside from teaching music, I am also an Elementary school computer and technology teacher. Read More
Instruments: Drums
For beginner, start with simply touching every part of Drum set, thus students can see how it sounds like, and how fun it is to simply hit the drums. After that I would start with hand technique, which is 3 basic stroke patter, and how to apply them to every part of Drum set. For Advanced beginners, I would start from getting touch with rudiments, and sight reading so that student will have well rounded skills, over all good drummer so to say. Read More
Instruments: Bass Guitar Double Bass
What do you think is the hardest thing to master on your instrument?
I personally think the hardest thing to master on bass is being able to play fluently up and down the neck in different positions. There is a lot of specific geometry involved with the bass, so you have to get your fingers to connect with your ear in every positions. Every instrument has its challenge - for example, piano isn't presented with the same challenges as bass. It is very straight forward and linear in its presentation, so playing in different positions isn't as much of a challenge. Everything is laid out for the eye to see. However, if you want to be an excellent pianist, you must be able to have a rich understanding of harmony and have left and right hand independence.
Why did you choose your primary instrument?
I'm still not completely sure what drew me into playing bass. I think a part of it was that it was laid back and cool and different than everyone wanting to be all the way in front like Guitar or Sax. When I first started playing bass, I was influenced by Flea and John Paul Jones, but as I grew older, turned to jazz bassists such as Paul Chambers, Ron Carter, and Richard Davis. I’ve appreciated the tone and function of the instrument from the get-go. It is my main instrument, but ironically have always been more influenced by other instruments than bass itself. Bass, to me, is merely a segue for expression.
What musical accomplishments are you most proud of?
The past couple of years I have finally been able to fully express myself through my band Jigsaw Falling, which has been a big relief to me as an artist, in which I am the vocalist, lyricist and bassist. I was able to create something stylistically I’ve had never heard before, that I’ve always wanted to hear, thanks to my fellow band mates Arturo Lopez and Jason Austan, who share a similar vision, creating a unique fusion of progressive rock, jazz, hip-hop, funk and latin. I tend to write about social issues, personal turmoil and/or philosophies. Its heavier subject matter but I think it’s important to write about what you are truly feeling, and express it in a way that is unique to yourself in a way that you’ve never heard. Those emotions are going translate to something real, and other people out there are going to relate. This also remains true for any musical situation that I’m presented with.
Have any of your students won awards or been selected for special honors? How have they succeeded?
One particular student I was presented with was the second chair bassist for the high school Los Angeles All City Jazz Band. He was one of the more advanced students I have had, especially given his age. I felt very inspired and motivated as an instructor because he was very inspired and motivated as a student, which is something that always brings me a lot of joy. The particular challenge with him was teaching him to not think of jazz in such a black and white academic way, but instead to really learn the language.
