Music Lessons Marion County, OR

Instruments: Piano, Voice, Music

I began teaching lessons in college as a young 18 year old of my home. I have used various methods over the years, many of which I have come to love. I have taught many different genres with classical being the main emphasis, but I am always open to my students and I am anxious to hear what they would like to accomplish, what their interests are, what makes music come alive.

When I was four years old, I sat down at the piano for the first time. The first time I pressed a key, I knew that I had a passion for music that would span my lifetime. A few years later, I took up flute and violin and joined local ensembles. I have traveled around the west coast performing classical, jazz, pop, and folk music. I graduated from Western Oregon University with my Bachelors in music composition in 2018. Read More

I do my best to be a relaxed, grounded teacher who reminds the student to relax and enjoy the process of making music.

My primary goals as an instructor are for my students to: 1. Develop an intuitive understanding of music that works for them 2. Find their unique musical voice/niche as an artist 3.
