As far as books go, I prefer the Hal Leonard method, especially for beginner musicians. I combine visual, audio and kinesthetic learning methods to tailor to anyone's needs. After the basics are taught or they're already learned, I assess the student's level and teach the student what they wish to learn to the best of my ability. Read More

I began my training in piano and guitar when I was 7 years old. My interest in music has led me to continue to learn other instruments. I have 7 children and have taught and continue to teach them various instruments in my home. This has allowed us to perform musically as a family in various parts of the country. My oldest daughter has gone on to acquire a degree in vocal performance. Read More

I am all about the individualized approach! Whether the student is looking at their instrument for the very first time or they are a seasoned veteran performer looking to freshen their approach or hone one specific side of their craft, I'm here and thrilled to help. Everyone learns differently; I recognize some kids and adults alike find the idea of staring into a book and practicing rudiments or études for hours a day either intimidating, boring, or both.

I have been teaching private lessons for 10 years. Encouraging students to practice regularly and to have fun with their instrument is essential for the learning process. I stress the importance of these two things so that the student may develop a love for music and their instrument of choice. Also, being able to teach a variety of musical styles keeps students wanting to learn. I encourage students to not only learn written pieces, but to create their own music and individual sound.

Instruments: Piano Violin
If you play more than one instrument, how did you decide to start playing the second? (Or 3rd, 4th, 5th, etc)!
I can say I was born playing piano since my mother did. I stopped lessons when I was 4 but always kept up piano. Fell in love with the violin in 6th grade and then in 1989 took up the harp. I always wanted to play harp so purchased one and started to play. It was so different being the student and not the teacher
Does music run in your family? Tell us a little about your musical family members.
My grandmother was a pianist s actually beat Rubenstein in a pushover competition for which I have her medal. My mother was a brilliant pianist and organist. My great uncle Victor Borge whose real name is Borge Rosenbaum was also an inspiration. I also had a group of students in his honor call Magical Music and we would choreograph magic tricks in our music. This is how I won one of the awards from the White House.
When did you decide to become a professional musician? Was it a gradual decision or was there a defining moment for you?
I actually took a break from music when I moved from Boston to Maryland and got another degree and a masters degree in psychology. I really wanted to ha a child though but was unable to. After 5 years we did adopt our daughter and my husband asked me if now I felt like I had everything. There was still an emptiness in me and I realized music was not a part of my life so I studied violin with two different teachers and worked hard until I achieved my dream of playing professionally in an orchestra.
What is your favorite style/genre of music to play and why?
I love classical music as well as folk and Disney music. I like music that brings peace and serenity to the heart like Yano or Yuruma. I like music that makes you paint music in your mind
If you weren't a musician what do you think you'd be doing instead?
I can’t think of anything else I would rather be. I was a swimmer so maybe an Olympic swimmer or archeologist because I love exploring and finding new and different things
What is your dream piece to perform and why?
The Brahms Violin Concerto with a full orchestra because this is the piece that made me fall in love with music. On piano it would be Rachmaninov piano Concerto .#4
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 of Music degree in music education with a concentrate on both violin and piano. I chose this one so I could have greater opportunities like teaching music in a school, teaching privately or performing all of which I have fone
Do you use specific teaching methods or books? (Ex: Alfred, Bastion, Suzuki, Hal Leonard) Why did you choose them if you did?
I use all kinds of music. The Suzuki meth and various parts of it, Bastien, Faber and Faber as well as Alfred. I use my own music and others as well. For older violin students I use Arubans violin Students I use Rubank Elementary Methods of violin, whistlers guide to the various position,Sevcik book of violin techniques and Wolfhardt.
What does a normal practice session look like for you?
I do not know if you mean for myself or my students. For my students I let them pick out a warm up piece, then we go on to what the have been working on and then we start working on new mydic
