Instruments: Piano Voice Keyboard

I began teaching voice as a school project when I was 14 years old and realized that I I loved it! From then on, I always kept my hand in teaching throughout my high school and college years. I started teaching full time, at which point I added piano and speaking to my repertoire. I have experience as a performing singer, session musician and actor and I I love helping my students get the most out their lessons, whether they simply want to learn their instrument to the best of their ability, or learn more about writing music and the industry.

I start with pushing students to develop good habits early on in their playing. I like to get my students playing songs in their genre of choice as soon as possible. This method generates interest in their instrument from the very begining. I select their repetoire based on what techniques we are currently working on and find songs that will force them to develop those techniques in order for them to effectively perform each piece.

As a teacher my goal is to push the students toward their best potential, guide them along the way, and make sure they have a full grasp of note reading, rhythm, expression, technique, and dynamics. And since I only see them once a week, the real work takes place at home with the parents, so for the younger players I teach them but also teach their parents how to push and motivate them at home.

This really took off in my college career. Through the teacher education program, I have had several field experiences with both teaching classroom music and individual lessons. I have a couple semesters under my belt of private instruction as well as piano. Read More

I believe in the power of music learning as a personally empowering experience of creativity, and also as a beneficial support for the human brain at any age. I don't believe in pushing students beyond their ambition--my expectations are contextualized to authentically meaningful aspirations of each student. For the rare student who has serious professional ambition, I will absolutely push them to achieve the highest level of performance ability. For a student prepping for an audition, I will guide them based on my experience as both a prospective student and as a professor who has run hundreds of auditions. Read More
