Admittedly limited, my teaching experience started when I was in High School when I became the marching Band's trumpet section leader. I really enjoyed sharing my knowledge and experience with otherswatching people grow in their musicianship is an incredible reward for me and I'd love to experience it more in my life! In college, I once again assumed the role of student and absorbed everything that I could. Now that I am graduate, I am very ready to share that with those who would have it. Read More

Nothing is more rewarding than seeing one of my students develop a passion for music. Therefore, it is important that each student progresses at his or her own pace. I encourage this by setting realistic goals for my students at each lesson. Acknowledging accomplishments helps fuel a student's desire to progress, and makes students eager to learn more. By trying to find out what truly inspires the student, I can successfully tailor my instruction to their wants and the needs. Read More

Suzuki Piano: also called the mother-tongue method. The method is modeled after the way the way children learn their native language, with an emphasis on exposure to the music being learned via listening to a recording. Note reading is not neglected, though earliest pieces are learned "by ear." The Suzuki philosophy is "Every Child Can" (learn to play). Read More

Hello, and nice to meet you! I am a skilled musician and teacher, bringing years of experience in performance and teaching to the table. My passion for teaching was grounded when I learned from the very best around the world. I learned through my own teachers that teaching can elevate an individual to higher heights and bring joy to those who learn from you. I graduated with a degree in piano performance from California State University in 2018 on the Dean's List and top of my class in pedagogical classes on teaching piano. Read More

What musical accomplishments are you most proud of?
Before relocating to Carlsbad California, I served as Worship Pastor at Living Water Community Church in Harrisburg Pennsylvania. I was successful in bridging the gap between the sudden departure of permanent worship pastor and the hiring of another. During this interim assignment, I introduced a more balanced selection of worship music more reflective of the diversity within the congregation.
In addition, last May, I directed an ensemble that provided the music for a play: "A Warm Heart of Steel". This play was set in Pittsburg between 1968 and 1973. We, therefore covered music of Sam Cooke, Aretha Franklin, James Brown, Donny Hathaway, and Lena Horne.
Did you have a teacher that inspired you to go into music? How did they inspire you?
There was not a particular teacher that inspired me. However, there were people in my community of whom I admired. For example, my cousin Larry, whom I idolized played for the church as I was growing up. More than the music, I admired the role he played in commanding the attention of the choir and congregation. My first musical mentor was Mr. Thomas Goodson, who was a jazz organist and member of our church. In a traditional Baptist congregation, he was infusing jazz chords over the rather straight hymnal renditions that we sang.
Why did you choose your primary instrument?
I did not choose the piano, it was chosen for me. My father was a diesel mechanic on tugboats in New York Harbor during World War II. He spent many weekends on shore in the barracks with no entertainment. In fact, the navy provided a piano in the barracks but no one could play. Therefore, he determined that upon leaving the service and beginning his family, his children would have piano lessons. I only discovered this promise to himself one Saturday morning when a big truck pulled up to our home and they unloaded a Story & Clark piano. We were in piano lessons the following week.
What advice do you have about practicing effectively?
I recommend parents set a timer for a specific time; not less than ten minutes per day, but not more than an hour. Follow the teachers guidelines for what to accomplish so that the time will be effective. Plan a time that there is relative calm in the home and limit the distractions that a TV or other noises might create. I also advise that no pressure is put on the student if family schedules does not permit practice every day. Don't sweat it. We do not want the thought of practice to become drudgery.
