Instruments: Piano
My teaching style is instruction, encouragement and assignment. I will teach a concept and then encourage the student as they attempt to master the skill. I will then assign that concept and skill as homework. After the student masters that concept I will introduce another concept that builds upon the previous one. During each quarter of the year a piece of music is assigned where those concepts are necessary to perform the piece. Read More
Instruments: Piano Clarinet
I started teaching way back in 2001, my first year of college, at a music festival in Vermont. It was a group clarinet & sax class, and it was so much fun! I gradually realized as college went by and I began teaching more and more, that while enjoyed performing, teaching was my real passion! I have been teaching both the clarinet and the piano full-time since 2007, and consider that my passion and my profession. Read More
Instruments: Piano
I'm a passionate musician who loves composing original works and inspiring other people to fall in love with music. Despite the lack of formal degrees in a music related major, I've been certified to teach piano and have substituted for piano teachers on multiple occasions. I collaborate with local musicians that include drummers, guitarists, singers, and bassists and love to perform in front of audiences. I've self-produced three piano albums consisting of all original compositions that infuse jazz influences with modern romantic undertones. Read More

While at Eastern I studied with Christopher Howard, a member of the United States Coast Guard Band. I have also spent summers at Brevard Music Center and the Philadelphia International Music Festival, studying with Steve Cohen, David Blumberg, and Ricardo Morales, as well as working as the production intern for the Hartford Symphony Orchestras Talcott Mountain Music Festival. In my time at Eastern, I won the New England Intercollegiate Band Festival Solo Competition, as well as receiving multiple awards from the music department, including the 2019 Undergraduate Creative Activity Fellowship, and the 2020 Outstanding Honors Thesis Award for my project, Leonard Bernstein and the Twentieth Century Crisis of Faith.

Instruments: Piano Drums Latin Percussion Music Keyboard
What musical accomplishments are you most proud of?
I created a children's choir with 300 singers of different ages in 5 months in a public school for a Christmas concert with the Orchestra. We did not have any musical rehearsal with the orchestra and the choir together but the concert was perfect.
Why did you choose your primary instrument?
It was by accident. My uncle had a drum in his house. It was a birthday present because he wanted to learn how to play that instrument but he never did. As a result, he kept the drum as a memory of his wish to decorate the house. I used to visit him and play his instrument just for fun. Eventually, my anxiety as a teenager decreased and I could stay focused easily. It was the moment when I decided to focus in the drum as my main Instrument. 6 years later, I started my proper preparation as a drummer
When will I start to see results?
It is different for each student. You can see little results in one month if you study intensely but typically it can be noticed after 3 or 4 month.
Did you have a teacher that inspired you to go into music? How did they inspire you?
Yes, he was the principal of the elementary school where I was studying in. He applied the Mozart effect with the students of that school by inserting baroque and classical music during the activities. Personally, I improved my concentration and my passion for learning new things grew. Eventually, I started listening this music at home, as a result, I became in a music lover and joined the choir of the school. Then, one day when I was in high school I discovered he was a singer and a choir conductor with no proper training. His passion conducting Inspired me to study music properly.
What advice do you have about practicing effectively?
You have to watch and listen what you are doing. More than just practicing, make sure that you are using a proper technique when you are playing. A minimum of one hour of practice everyday is fundamental to success.
How do I know if my child is ready to start lessons?
It is important to start the soon as possible. The younger you start, the better you will be. However, the "recommendable" age to start is 4-5 years old because their automotive capabilities are sufficiently developed with their understanding to star in the music world. The child can start before this age if he/she shows a complete mastery of the language, otherwise, the classes will be just training or preparation to the real music classes.
