Instruments: Piano
My teaching experience starts back at the age of 17 when my private instructor encouraged me to start teaching beginners. I have been teaching for over 12 years now and love sharing the joy and passion of music with others. I started private piano lessons at the age of 6 and started writing songs and teaching myself music production when I was 13. My grandpa turned my dad's garage into a music studio for me when I was 16 and I started teaching piano lessons from my parents home in Riverside soon after. Read More
Instruments: Piano Saxophone Flute Clarinet Recorder Piccolo Music
I was born and raised in Tucson, Arizona, where my musical journey began at the age of eight with the Flute and Piano. From the moment I started playing, I knew music would be a lifelong passion. By the age of twelve, I had expanded my instrumental repertoire to include the Saxophone and Clarinet. I earned my Bachelors degree in Flute Performance from the University of Arizona, then moved to Los Angeles to pursue a Masters degree at the California Institute of the Arts (CalArts), where I discovered a deep love for Contemporary Music.

As a piano teacher and composer, I have always loved teaching and working with children in the area of music and the arts. I graduated from Ithaca College School of Music with a BA in music composition and an instrumental emphasis on string bass and piano. I have been performing throughout grade school, in college and after college. I have been with groups such as the New Patlz Symphony Orchestra and the Saddleback Church Orchestra on string bass, and the Ulster County Concert Band on clarinet. Read More
Instruments: Piano
As with methods, I do not have one lesson style. My approach with a three year old is different than with a seventy year old. I am detailed in my critiques, but patient, positive, and creative with explanations. My goal is for the students to learn to love and appreciate music and for them to use it not as a short term goal, but as something they can live with and enjoy for the rest of their lives. I sets appropriate goals with recitals, festivals and examinations to both motivate and encourage students, ensuring that they have a positive experience. Read More

I also have experience composing, accompanying, arranging, and recording as a studio musician. Read More

Did you have a teacher that inspired you to go into music? How did they inspire you?
I was lucky enough to have been born in a musical family. My mother is a piano teacher and my father is a violinist. As a child, there was always music in my home, both from my parents and their friends. My mother taught me piano lessons while my father took me to see the orchestra in which he played. My parents had a music school where I also took general music classes, and learned to sing. By the time I was 12 years old and began to take trumpet lessons, I had a solid foundation in solfege, reading and writing music.
What advice do you have about practicing effectively?
Focus on what you don't know. There is always something new to learn, so it is important to focus your practicing on new music or skills that you have not yet mastered. Avoid practicing for long periods of times without resting. Ideally, the most effective way to practice is in short bursts throughout the day. This will keep you engaged in what you are doing and will also keep you from becoming too tired physically. Listen to the best music possible. Music is about imitation, so if you imitate good music you will sound good.
How do I know if my child is ready to start lessons?
The average age for a child to begin trumpet lessons is between 9 and 10. Depending on the child, he/she may be able to start taking lessons as early as 8 years old. If your child is much younger than that, do not shy away from music. This is a great time to get them started with piano lessons as well as general music classes that will greatly contribute to their overall intellectual and psychological development. A student that begins to play another instrument after taking piano lessons is much more likely to succeed and develop faster.
When will I start to see results?
This will depend on many different factors such as; if the student has an instrument or is able to have a place to practice, parent involvement when practicing, previous musical knowledge, if the student was taught good habits or not, current level of student (beginner, intermediate, advanced).
If the student is starting from scratch, they may be able to produce a sound right away or it may take a couple of lessons. As for the intermediate students, he/she will see an improvement in their sound in a month or two. For the advanced students, change is much more difficult than the beginners and intermediate students so it will always take more time, however the results tend to be more drastic.
