Instruments: Piano
I believe that it is imperative that the student has fun, while staying focused and learning as much through a lesson as possible. I play musical games and analogies to assist with the memorization of finger numbers, note names, and finger scales. I make sure that the student is focused and is enjoying the lesson and if not, I am able to change my method to fit my student's needs, all while maintaining professionalism and communication with the parent.

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

Have fun. Love what you do. If it stops being fun push a little further ahead and see what happens. All it takes is a little ember to start a fire and I am ready to help my students find that fire within themselves. Its not always going to be easy and they will fall and stumble and when that does happen (and it will) I will be there to show them how to pick themselves up. Read More

I have extensive experience as a teacher as well as a performer. I bring these two accomplishments together to provide a well rounded experience for my students. In High School, I performed with the Kansas City Youth Symphony for 8 years, the Kansas City Cello Choir for eight years, the Missouri All-State for three years, and various other honor orchestras throughout her career. While still attending Drake University, I played in the Drake Symphony Orchestra, the Des Moines Symphony and the Encore String Trio. Read More

From 2009 until 2016 I was on the faculty of the prestigious Orange County School of the Arts in Santa Ana. I also co-owned and managed the Green Room Arts music studio, where I recruited, prepared, and led several middle and high school student guitar orchestras on national and international tours and competitions. In 2017, under my direction, The Green Room Arts Youth Guitar Ensemble won 3rd place in the Large Ensemble division at the prestigious Guitar Foundation of America International Ensemble Competition.

I was hand-picked by a group of professional piano school directors to begin training at the early age of 6 through the Music School for Gifted Children in Russia. After 11 years of intensive training in piano performance and theory, I went on to complete my Bachelors degree at Music College of Russia. Read More

When did you decide to become a professional musician? Was it a gradual decision or was there a defining moment for you?
Deciding to become a professional musician was a gradual decision. The journey of meeting many musicians and being surronded by that culture throughout my life led me to that ultimately becoming my job.
If you play more than one instrument, how did you decide to start playing the second? (Or 3rd, 4th, 5th, etc)!
I decided to pick up multiple instruments in middle school. I was fascinated in understanding the various components of an ensemble/ band and the individual role that each instrument played in that overall harmonic experience.
What is your favorite style/genre of music to play and why?
My favorite genres of music are R&B and funk. I think studying early Motown and the contributions of the session players during that era, contribute to a further understanding of how to play modern R&B music.
What advice do you have about practicing effectively?
I believe to practice music effectively it is important to focus on the individual task at hand when going to practice. I also believe that consistency and determination is the key to success in any field.
What does a normal practice session look like for you?
A normal practice session starts with me warming up on my instrument through basic exercises and scales. If I have any music that I need to focus on for a show, I will then transition into learning that. I will then practice any techniques I need to refresh on whether it be slapping or double thumbing.
Do you use specific teaching methods or books? (Ex: Alfred, Bastion, Suzuki, Hal Leonard) Why did you choose them if you did?
Growing up I used Suzuki and Hal Leonard books to practice piano. I also practiced a lot of Hanon from a few books to get great warm up exercises. For teaching bass students I use Bass Aerobics by Jon Liebman and various other sheet music I have collected from over the years.
Why did you choose your primary instrument?
I chose electric bass as my primary instrument because of it's vital role as both a rhythmic section instrument and a melodic one. The bass is the connection between all the other instruments to the drummer when locking into a groove.
What musical accomplishments are you most proud of?
The musical accomplishment I am most proud of has been getting to play on Country Music Television's award show "Smashing Glass" honoring Patti LaBelle and Tanya Tucker.
When will I start to see results?
Results come from finding one's internal connection to their instrument. It is a reward for developing the habit of achieving an indiviudal tasks, whether it be conquering a difficult part of a song or developing a new technique.
How do I know if my child is ready to start lessons?
I believe that there is no "right age" to start taking lessons. Music is a language and anyone can start learning to express themselves through music at anytime.
Did you have a teacher that inspired you to go into music? How did they inspire you?
I have had various music teachers throughout my life who have impacted my overall playing. Some of these include Reggie Hamilton, Freddie Washington, Abraham Laboriel, Alphonso Johnson, Rhonda Smith, Patrice Rushen, and Paul Jackson Jr. Each one has taught me various aspects of how I can grow and develop within my playing.
