Instruments: Piano
I feel it is important to address each students learning style on an individual level. For young children and beginner's, I pull from resources that encourage basic fundamentals, not inclusive or limited to, Bastein, Alfred, Faber & Faber, and Hal Leonard. According to one's ability and interest, Hanon, Sonatina's Sonata's, familiar and classic's, are encouraged. Different genre's are used as part of performance and support in teaching a theory, technic, ear/sight reading, or performance application. Read More

I teach how to read music and mainly use Faber & Faber method for both children and adults. For beginning students who are children, I typically start with Faber and Faber primer level. Once the student has progressed to have a grasp of the fundamentals, I will begin to introduce scales and solo repertoire. For adults, I try to find out what the student is interested in, and guide my instruction accordingly to keep the lessons engaging and fun, no matter their ability level. Read More
Instruments: Piano Guitar Voice Drums Bass Guitar Synthesizer Harmonica Lap Steel Guitar Banjo Ukulele Mandolin Recorder Conga Latin Percussion
I have a very personal and relaxed way of teaching that helps each student enjoy and advance on their chosen instrument at their pace. I prefer 60 minute sessions to have the time to fully evaluate and advance from the previous lesson and to move on to new material. I use the student's preferred style of music to teach them how to play, and expand their styles and technique from there. Read More
Instruments: Voice Music
When did you decide to become a professional musician? Was it a gradual decision or was there a defining moment for you?
I knew ever since I was a child that I was meant to be a professional singer. I even had dreams ever since I was younger about me performing music, my parents have my sisters and I on vhs tapes singing and playing the kiddy piano, and I had a heavenly encounter where I was singing in heaven in beautiful clothing.
What is your favorite style/genre of music to play and why?
Honestly, for me it is very hard to pick a favorite genre because I love them all, and I listen to and sing all genres. I will say however that I have a preference for music in other languages.
Does music run in your family? Tell us a little about your musical family members.
Music definitely runs in my family on my mother and father’s side. Music, performance, acting, and the arts in general go back generations on both sides.
What does a normal practice session look like for you?
A normal practice session for me starts with breath work, stretches, relaxation exercises, vocal warm ups, choosing repertoire, working on my theory workbooks, working on my piano, and I teach myself piano and other fun vocal things.
If you weren't a musician what do you think you'd be doing instead?
If I was not a singer I would probably be working in the sciences. I love all types of sciences like the sciences of human behavior, the human body, plants, and animals.
If you have a Music Degree, what is it in (Performance, Education, Musicology, Theory, Composition, etc) and why did you choose that degree?
My degree is in vocal performance. I did however, play piano off and on through out the years. And I work on my musical theory books.
What is your dream piece to perform and why?
My dream piece to perform is “The Magic Flute,” “The Queen of the Night.” One of the four languages that I speak is German. And the Magic Flute is in German, and I love the high notes.
What musical accomplishments are you most proud of?
I am most proud of the superior ratings that I have received from recitals, I have done many performances, and I have a lot of views on social media.
Have any of your students won awards or been selected for special honors? How have they succeeded?
My hope is that when I start teaching my students will win competitions. I don’t currently have any students right now but, with hard work and practice there will be many wins.
What do you think is the hardest thing to master on your instrument?
I think that sometimes it can be difficult to grow your range and develop confidence in your self and your instrument. These are things that I continue to work on daily. And it is hard not to compare myself with others as well.
Do you use specific teaching methods or books? (Ex: Alfred, Bastion, Suzuki, Hal Leonard) Why did you choose them if you did?
I have developed some of my own methods. For example, I have learned animal sounds in order to strengthen and stretch my range. I was surprised at how many animals and birds make sounds that sound like the human voice.
Why did you choose your primary instrument?
I chose voice as my instrument of choice because I love to sing. I am also a dancer and I put my dance and singing videos on YouTube and TikTok.
Did you have a teacher that inspired you to go into music? How did they inspire you?
A teacher that I had from junior high all the way up to my age now inspired me to continue with my music. This teacher of mine has unfortunately passed on but, he taught me many wonder things that instilled a sense of pride in my many cultural backgrounds.
When will I start to see results?
I don’t try to put a time limit on a student’s improvement because it depends on the student. I can provide the students with all the tools necessary however, the students must practice applying them.
What advice do you have about practicing effectively?
Practice and repetition are of upmost importance. I also love the fact that social media provides challenges that help the students improve in many areas. I would have the students do fun challenges to help them improve vocal quality and range.
How do I know if my child is ready to start lessons?
You know by assessing the personality and the levels of the student. I also think that she and personality play a big role. For example, a child can be too young to begin lessons.
