Instruments: Piano Clarinet
I love teaching, and I do so with both encouragement and humor. I realize that not everyone can is able or willing to practice six hours a day, so I work with each student individually to find their pace. I am happy teaching both competitive students (I have had several students participate successfully in the ABRSM exams) and students who play purely for enjoyment. My favorite piano methods are Piano Adventures and Piano Pronto, and I like to combine both of them. Read More
Instruments: Piano Saxophone Flute Clarinet Recorder Piccolo Mallet Percussion Music Keyboard
I love when I get to see my students fall in love with music and have great passion for it. I take an individualized approach to each student, and I also set realistic goals so they can meet them. I want to make sure students improve, while not getting frustrated or bored. I think it is also important to make sure the student is always having fun, because creating music has to be a choice for a student to succeed. Read More
Instruments: Piano Violin
I believe the best teaching method is one that focuses on the accomplishments of each student. I have several different rewards systems that I will use to motivate students to practice at home. Part of this system is encouraging my students to set their own realistic goals and walking them through how to reach them. Additionally, I am a big believer in affirmation and will do my best to encourage each student throughout the lesson. Read More
Instruments: Piano Drums Mallet Percussion
Teaching must be a two way street between the instructor and the student. There must be an understanding of the relationship and a willingness on both ends to take everything that they can out of the experience. I believe once this is done, a relationship can start to form between the two which will naturally help in the learning progress. For adults especially, constructive criticism is just as important as the praise when you do a good job. Read More

What is your dream piece to perform and why?
I have multiple dream pieces to perform. I would like to perform a piano adaptation of the Toccata and Fugue in D minor from Bach because its level and independence requirements are fundamental for any professional. Furthermore, its complexity and passion is unique.
In the drum I would like to play the iconoclast by Symphony X because its complexity.
Does music run in your family? Tell us a little about your musical family members.
I have a cousin with no proper musical formation that is a composer and keyboard player. Other than that, I am the only musician in my family.
When did you decide to become a professional musician? Was it a gradual decision or was there a defining moment for you?
It was in a choir rehearsal when I was 12 years old. I saw the principal of my elementary school conducting with such passion that I felt Inspired. It was then when I decided to dedicate my life to music.
If you play more than one instrument, how did you decide to start playing the second? (Or 3rd, 4th, 5th, etc)!
I play the keyboard because I needed to learn how to play in order to get graduated from collage. Eventually, I fell in love of the spiritual sound of this instrument and I keep playing by my own.
If you weren't a musician what do you think you'd be doing instead?
I think I would be a programmer, publicist or graphic designer. I am very creative but I really like technology, so I think It would be something related to art or computers.
What is your favorite style/genre of music to play and why?
I like to play baroque in the keyboard because its rhythm and composition are very logic and mathematically precise. In the drum I like to play rock and metal music because of its energy. I like the adrenaline I feel when I am playing but I like to play jazz too because I like to improvise.
If you have a Music Degree, what is it in (Performance, Education, Musicology, Theory, Composition, etc) and why did you choose that degree?
I have a Bachelor's Degree in Music, Mention: Musicology. I chose this subject because it mix human sciences with my passion: Music. In this career you can study society and human nature through the organization and conception of sounds.
What does a normal practice session look like for you?
2 minutes of each scale and rudiments from quarter notes to Sixty-fourth notes just to warm up. Then, 30 minutes minimum of exercises to improve independence.After that, one hour to study the piece.
Do you use specific teaching methods or books? (Ex: Alfred, Bastion, Suzuki, Hal Leonard) Why did you choose them if you did?
Yes, the guide I use for the drum are "The modern guide for the modern drummer" by Riley and the "stick control for the snare" by Lawrence. For piano I use "El metodo Elemental y Progresivo" by Carpenter and for music language I use "The Pozzoli"
What do you think is the hardest thing to master on your instrument?
Probably precision and technique. Even the most professionals instrumentalists have problems with the tempo and their techniques. Sometimes you get too excited playing the drum, It is when you lose on of both.
