Teaching is my passion and calling, i can't think of doing anything else! In 2013 I graduated from Fairfield University with a triple major in English, Gender Studies, and Violin Performance.

Steinway and Sons invited me to give concerts, teach master classes and give lectures for students of different ages. Read More

Encouraging regular practice on a consistent schedule is one of the key points I like to emphasize for younger students, as it tends to help the student progress and gain a passion for the instrument.

If a student isn't having fun in their lessons, then I'm not doing my job! Read More

I've taught students of all ages- as well as many students with special needs, helping them use music as a medium for creative expression. Read More

This love then makes him/her want to practice!
