Instruments: Piano

I am passionate about piano and music education. I believe that a good music education unlocks skills and talents that cross over into other disciplines including S.T.E.M. subjects and even athletics. Music lessons are also a great way to teach personal responsibility and the importance of preparation. I have a bachelors and masters degree in classical piano from Chapman University in Orange County and University of Southern California. Read More

Instruments: Violin

Watching students progress and fall in love with music is deeply rewarding for me. I approach my teaching in a fun and friendly way, using our outlined goals to guide us through learning the instrument. I like to help my students set up their own customized practice schedule and will make notes throughout our lesson so that the student is completely clear on what they must do on their own, With every new element that I introduce, I work on it until I see understanding from the student, so I can see that they know what to work on.
