Instruments: Piano Violin
I'm a professional music instructor, who's able to be creative, capable to interpret music with feeling, love to work with students, very patient, and knowledgeable. I'm an expert in violin and piano performance and instruction. I create a unique and comprehensive Lesson plans for each student. I teach beginner to advance levels for very young or adult students by conducting both in person or online lessons. Along with teaching how to play an instruments I also teach theory at the same time, because I find that it's highly nessesary to understand how to read, count the rhythms, and many more about music.

Instruments: Piano Guitar Drums Bass Guitar
Music brings me a lot of joy, and I hope to impart that to my students! It takes time and effort to gain mastery of an instrument, but the resulting freedom and fulfillment of being able to play and enjoy music are more than worth it. It was during high school that I started to teach piano, and my love for teaching music has only grown since then. I love teaching students of all ages, abilities, and backgrounds. Read More
Instruments: Piano Voice Violin Cello Double Bass Keyboard
I strongly believe in having an open and honest relationship with my student. I think both should know upfront what the expectations should be, such as how long they will practice, what proper progress and growth looks like, as well as what they need from me to help them succeed. More than anything, I want to help my students grow their love for music in any way I can, and that might be different for everyone but that should be the priority. Read More
Instruments: Piano Voice Saxophone Drums Bass Guitar Organ Synthesizer Ukulele Mallet Percussion Orchestral Percussion Keyboard
I use the teaching method as previously described, and try to tailor my style for each student. Everyone learns, practices, and progresses uniquely -- so it's part of MY job to figure out the best approach to help each of my students. My experience in both the civilian and military music communities has given me a very open-minded but direct approach to WHAT you should learn, and HOW FAST you should be able to progress each individual student.

Though there are many different ways to teach, I will gravitate more towards my preferred learning style which is through discovery and analysis. I enjoy finding different ways to tackle one specific task and I enjoy taking part in that journey with my students. Those moments when their eyes light up when they realize a whole new dimension of possibilities just opened up for them because they found a new piece to the puzzle. Read More
Instruments: Piano
The first time I had the opportunity to mentor students was in my sophomore year of college in 2017. As a piano tutor at California Baptist University, I was helping beginner piano students to prepare for piano proficiency exams. I became a Teaching Assistant in the spring of 2021, where I assisted my piano professor in preparing for classes and lessons. I started teaching my own private students online and in person in the summer of 2021. Read More

What is your dream piece to perform and why?
There are too many to list:
For solo classical repertoire: I love The French: Debussy, Ravel, Poulenc, Milhaud. I tend to favor impressionists too like Cyril Scott and have recorded a great amount of repertoire all ready.
For concerti I haven't yet performed: I would love to play the Leroy Anderson Concerto in C, The Leith Steven's Night Song Concerto, John Ireland's Piano Concerto and more Mozart.
For musical theatre: I love all the standard repertoire and love to perform them all
I also love to record my own original piano works.
If you weren't a musician what do you think you'd be doing instead?
I have great background in art as well and film history.
I have taught film noir, Pre-Code and MGM cinema courses which I love. I'm a huge classic movie buff.
I love visual art and have background in sketching and coloring.
I love yoga and veganism and have written already 2 books on vegan cooking.
I'm a clinical hypnotherapist and love working with clients in regressive sessions and teaching seminars.
I enjoy metaphysical studies and have background as a psychic/tarot reader and astrologer and find this fascinating.
I'm a computer web designer and I also design websites for my clients.
What is your favorite style/genre of music to play and why?
Jazz Piano: 1950s LA cool Jazz standards, 1930s stride, ragtime, coastal smooth jazz bossa nova, and romantic Liberace-esque piano
Classical Piano: MOZART, and the Impressionists and French Composers
Harpsichord: Scarlatti, French Baroque, and 20th century works such as the concerti by De Falla and Poulenc.
Voice: Great American Songbook Standards, Mozart and Operatic REpertoire
Violin: Celtic fiddle
My expertise is vast and would take to long to cover here. I love all music with maybe the exception of Heavy Metal rock and rap.
If you play more than one instrument, how did you decide to start playing the second? (Or 3rd, 4th, 5th, etc)!
I come from a musical family and thus it was required to be versatile. As a child I studied piano, harpsichord, electric keyboard/synthesizer, organ, violin, viola, mandolin, as well as ballroom dancing, ballet, acting and musical theatre and operatic voice.
My main love is piano and voice but I'm also passionate about harpsichord though I don't currently own one. I enjoy fiddle as well. I would love to learn classical harp someday if time and money permits.
I believe that most musicians eventually study many areas of the arts.
Does music run in your family? Tell us a little about your musical family members.
I come from a long famous line of musicians.
My great great maternal grandfather Canuto Berea Rodriguez was a famous Galician Spanish composer who wrote symphonies, operas, piano music and song cycles. He was also the mayor of La Caruna, Spain, and owned a family music publishing house.
My mother is a noted opera singer from New York and my dad a country western performer. I have 5 siblings that are all musical and many nieces and nephews that are all prodigies in the arts.
My nephew Matthew is a concert pianist who has already played Chopin and Beethoven standards by age 10 and is working on Rhapsody in Blue.
When did you decide to become a professional musician? Was it a gradual decision or was there a defining moment for you?
I knew since I was 3 I would always make a career in the arts. I prefer however to be self employed. I like to teach with my own methods I know work and set my own hours and decide whom I work on.
I didn't like teaching college/university due to the strict regulations, red tape of the California School systems, budgets cuts etc. In fact I worked 60 hour weeks and was stressed and exhausted. Ironically owning my own business I make the same salary for 20 hours a week and have a lot of free time to concertize, record albums and write books.
