I have been singing and writing songs since I was 9 years old. I'm an ARTIST at heart. I have been a vocal, songwriting, performance and artist coach for 20 years . I enjoy meeting clients and helping them discover creativity beyond their greatest expectations. After the exploring and discovery phase is achieved-we get into the discipline of your creativity. But YOU - the student decides how far you wanna go. Projects for my clients include coaching for voice, musical theater , songwriting, arranging, studio recordings, church solos, live shows, auditions and more. Read More

I am motivated to keep students constantly engaged and passionate about their instrument! As a multi-instrumentalist I always play different instruments with students to give them a sense of playing in a group, which is what music should be all about! I also do my best to acknowledge the students strengths and weaknesses and take some time aside in class to speak to them about them. I believe it is important to have positive feedback but also to recognizes areas in which students can improve. Read More

Teaching style could easily be summaried and paraphrased with my above stated pedagogy! Teaching style changes from student to teacher. I enjoy trying to decipher what the student enjoys hearing, wants to learn, prior knowledge, and desires are. These help in my search to find the perfect style at which the student understands and enjoys the task at hand. Read More
Instruments: Piano
For young beginners, I like to use Alfreds Basic Piano Library books. The songs inside are simple, fun, and are a great introduction to piano and music theory! For older beginners and more advanced students, Ill use Piano Adventures and The Piano Bench of Classical Music. Ill also throw in a favorite theory and technique book according to students age. My lessons will consist of classical piano training theory, technique, and performance but we can apply this to any piece the student wants to learn! Read More
Instruments: Piano Clarinet
I began teaching as early as 2003, while in high school on clarinet. I continued to teach during college as a voice coach, and have been teaching piano, music theory and music composition to this date. I have worked with both children and adults, in classrooms and one on one. One of the things that distinguishes me from other teachers is how I tailor my program for each student, because everyone learns differently and has different strengths and talents. Read More
Instruments: Piano Guitar Ukulele Keyboard Electric Guitar Acoustic Guitar
One of the first questions I ask a new student is what music they are currently listening to and what piece they would like to learn. Sometimes they are shy and I don't really get an answer out of them but after they become comfortable with me I get an idea of what they want to learn. To my shocking surprise many kids from this modern era have no clue who John Lennon or Bob Dylan are and it is essential for me to expose them to all sorts of music from Bach to The Beatles to Chopin and The Cure!

If you weren't a musician what do you think you'd be doing instead?
Something related with Animals or plants
I could be a cook.
I could be an Actor
I could be a writer
A Film Director.
Philosopher.
Scientist.
I would love to be a painter or work with art. It has to be related with creativity and freedom. There is a lot of occupations that I would love to do. I would study chemistry and physics. Also if I wasn't a musician I would love to be a dancer and go in life enjoying different types of music and movements. Another thing that I encounter very fun is sports as Racquet Tennis, Baseball, Swimming and running.
What is your favorite style/genre of music to play and why?
All of the in their own styles. My favorites I can say
Classical
I like Classical because of all the richness of styles and composers. I think all the posibilities of amazing music coming from composers that really worked hard in their styles and ideas.
Latin styles coming from Cuba, Venezuela, Puerto Rico, Mexico, Spain, Argentina and brasil. I like this music because has great rhythms and soul. Music to dance is generally happy and simple music.
I like Modern music as Rock, Funk, Jazz, Regueae because it brings the new sounds from synthesizers and electric guitars that make the music special
If you play more than one instrument, how did you decide to start playing the second? (Or 3rd, 4th, 5th, etc)!
I started with Guitar and then Voice. My 3rd instrument was the keyboard. I started cause I had a very good friend that was a good Piano player. When I saw him play I always ask him things about the keyboard. He recommended me some piano methods that I bought. I started practicing keyboard but it was a hooby for me. I always focused more in the guitar and the Voice. Also I started to play other string instruments as the electric Guitar, the Cavaquinho, the puerto rican cuatro, Requinto Guitar, Bass guitar. Then I was a good piano player. For what I decided to keep following my heart and bought an student trumpet an alto SAx, a Soprano Sax. I bought a flute because I really liked and in a spiritual session they asked us to meditate breathing as we were playing a flute. Also musician friends inspired me for the drum set and percussion.
Does music run in your family? Tell us a little about your musical family members.
Not that much but it did. My dad wasn't a professional musician but he was a very good singer and play good guitar. Also he could be in some groups were they gather for fun or because he was playing for a band of the school. Also the sister of my that she is not a musician but she recognizes and like to hear good music. I was a child and usually child's can't appreciate sometimes classical music. Is a little to serous and complicated for their taste. You need a guide that start sharing you jewels in the classical music and you find amazing music.
When did you decide to become a professional musician? Was it a gradual decision or was there a defining moment for you?
I always knew I wanted to be a musician. My family in general are more in to business. I didn't have no body from my family to guide me in to what is it to work fully as a musician. Anyway I always wanted to give my life to the music. My parents told me they support me in Music after I finish another career that is more in to the business. I studied marketing before I did my music careers. It wasn't gradual decision. I always knew and I never would regret of doing it. Music has way more magic than people from outside can see.
