I teach students starting at the age of five to adults. I have vocal techniques that help singers to reach higher notes and sing with comfort. Read More

I also recently worked for Music Center of the Northwest, a nonprofit community music school in North Seattle, specializing in student and community relations. As a teacher, I specialize in teaching beginners, moving quickly to establish a quality of tone and practice procedures to master the instrument for whatever purpose (school enrichment, personal enjoyment, performance, auditions for college, whatever you want to do!) I have experience working with adults who want to revisit an instrument they put down, and who want to learn for the first time! Read More

For all of my students, I find out what they are interested in, and guide my instruction accordingly. I typically start with the Piano Adventures series and my own compositions.

All of my students get a complete musical education by learning theory, performance, and music history. It's important that lessons are engaging and paced accordingly to maximize my student's enjoyment and keep their interest for our entire lesson. Read More
