After assessing the student's age and experience we select a method book or repertoire. I typically suggest the Alfred books for young students. I aim to introduce my students to a variety of repertoire, (from baroque to modern music) but I also keep their goals and interests in mind. I consider music theory, ear training, music reading, and creative music-making just as essential as learning repertoire, therefore I strive to incorporate them in each lesson. Read More

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'm a passionate, experienced singer/songwriter, guitarist, and performer looking to share my love of music. I started playing guitar at age six, and by the time I wrote my first song at age seven, I was hooked. While growing up outside of Philadelphia, I made a name for myself in the local music scene by performing at various East Coast venues including the legendary folk mecca, The Bitter End, and World Cafe Live.

I began my vocal studies in North Carolina State University with Elvira Green, who was one of the first black Sopranos at The Metropolitan Opera. I continued at Boyer College of Music under the tutelage of an internationally acclaimed jazz singer Joanna Pascale. After moving to Los Angeles, I began a mentorship with Tamara Beatty, who has been a vocal coach on The Voice for 10+ years. After college, I worked as a full-time talent manager in New York City and Los Angeles. Read More

For each of my student's lessons, I have them play for me their pieces from the lesson book and their scales and arpeggios. At the end of the lesson, I take a few notes for the student so they know what to focus on or fix for their pieces, as well as keep track of which key they are working on for their scales. I love to see my students improve and gain a passion for their instrument. Read More

We are a team, and together we will help you reach where you want to go and have a fun time doing so. I am very creative and open for ideas. Also I am sensitive to shyness, something I struggled with in the past myself, so we will work together to find ways to tackle these cool challenges and help you grow as an artist. Read More

My teaching experience started not too long ago despite me playing professionally for awhile. I decided to start up private lessons during the COVID-19 pandemic over zoom and discord because my day job at the time had laid me off. However, I quickly learned that upon being a private teacher, it was difficult to market and advertise for myself in the hopes to get new students as well as keep up with my professional commitments.

What advice do you have about practicing effectively?
To repeat a certain process:
for a certain amount of time, continue this formula -
1. Play through the melody/note/progression many times, & build your concentration of effective execution. 2. Then, take a break for however much time to let you hands/lips & mind relax
3. Then, come back to it, and you will be surprised how much that break helped the ability to sink in.
When will I start to see results?
You will start to see positive results within the first few weeks of starting private lessons.
Depending on where the student is in terms of how much they do or don't know about music, the results will of course vary. If the student is starting from scratch, the first results will be how to hold the instrument properly, how to generate a sustainable pitch, as well as becoming aware of the direction they will need to advance to become proficient in that instrument. If the student is already passed the beginning stages, the results will be more about first breaking common bad habits, and then moving onto learning more advanced skills and how the skills relate to the notation/theoretical side of understanding music.
Did you have a teacher that inspired you to go into music? How did they inspire you?
My biggest influences on developing a life long pursuit in music are mostly from family members. My mom's dad was a trumpet player as well as a middle school music teacher for many years. With my dad's father, even though his main career was in the medical field, he was also a very talented clarinet player. As the lineage continued to my mom and dad, my mom actually discovered that she liked the clarinet more than the trumpet, and my dad discovered that he really loved the saxophone. What's cool about how they met was my dad moved to Orange County for work and met my mom in the Orange County Community Concert band. In the later months of my mother's pregnancy, she would rest her clarinet on her pregnant belly during rehearsal while she played, and a lot of the other members would tell her, "Boy, I bet that baby is going to be a very musical person when they grow up." The direct vibration of the notes from the clarinet must have touched my heart inside the womb, because I did indeed grow to be someone extremely dedicated and passionate about music.
