Instruments: Piano Guitar Ukulele Keyboard Electric Guitar Acoustic Guitar
For all students from beginners to adults I use Alfred's Piano books as they are very transparent and easy to follow. I also strongly believe that even beginner students as early as 4 can learn scales and chords even though many teachers don't introduce such things until they reach an older age and have more experience. It is very apparent to me that many teachers under estimate how truly brilliant children are and how they can soak up material much more quickly at a younger age. Read More

I began playing drums at the age of 12 when I joined my middle school marching band. By the time I was in high school, my passion for music making and involvment with various performing groups had completely consumed me. I decided to further my musical endeavors by studying jazz performance at two different music schools. I have obtained a bachelors degree from Florida State University (2012) and a masters degree for the California Institute of the Arts (2014). Read More
Instruments: Piano Saxophone Flute Clarinet Recorder Piccolo Music
I was born and raised in Tucson, Arizona, where my musical journey began at the age of eight with the Flute and Piano. From the moment I started playing, I knew music would be a lifelong passion. By the age of twelve, I had expanded my instrumental repertoire to include the Saxophone and Clarinet. I earned my Bachelors degree in Flute Performance from the University of Arizona, then moved to Los Angeles to pursue a Masters degree at the California Institute of the Arts (CalArts), where I discovered a deep love for Contemporary Music.

In college, I taught a handful of beginning violin students. Throughout college and my years post grad, Ive taught private and group dance lessons and focus on technique and confidence. I apply the same concepts to my music lessons and love helping students discover their personal voice. I encourage regular practice and personal compositions. Every student is different and I am hopeful to find the system that works for each one. Read More

What advice do you have about practicing effectively?
Make it your goal to practice just 15 minutes a day and your growth as a musician will happen very quickly. Waiting for the last day before lessons does not give you the benefit of repetition over many days. Also, once you start your 15 minutes, you might actually enjoy the creative process and spend more time than you originally planned. The hurdle that we all need to overcome is TIME! We are all busy people, but music is essential to the human soul, so it is so important to make the time! Just 15 minutes a day will truly do wonders.
How do I know if my child is ready to start lessons?
For your child to be successful at the repetition and structure of learning the piano, they should show an interest and joy in music and learning an instrument. Your child will most likely be between 8 and 10 years old with a 30 minute attention span for sitting still long enough to do something like homework or read a book. Your child will have the fine and gross motor skills to write alphabet letters. It is imperative that your child be able to read and write, so they can be successful.
For vocal students, your child should be able to read and write, so again between the ages of 8-10 are good for beginning. The students at this age will catch up very quickly to peers who may have started their music training at a younger age. They will be musically and developmentally ready to start their music instruction.
When will I start to see results?
Enthusiastic parents and students can work together to see results. Parents can help students remember to practice at home as part of their daily routine. After 2-3 months of diligent 15 minutes/day practice, the students will show dramatic growth in their music skills. Parents who have a positive attitude and help students feel enthusiastic about practice will provide the structure and support students need to be more successful. Students should also find music that excites them and watch videos of musicians who inspire them and study the style of music they want to emulate.
What musical accomplishments are you most proud of?
I was the pianist for the LDS San Bernardino Stake Choir for over 4 years. I also had the honor of assisting with choir conducting there. I have accompanied youth and children's choirs for over 20 years. For singing, I have sung duets and solos since I was in high school and I am always watching and learning and applying new style and techniques to my performances.
