I usually start my beginning piano students who are children, in Alfred's Basic Piano Library, Lesson Book 1A.

I also like to find out the student's individual interest and find repertoire that they are interested in learning and that are aligned with their current skills. Read More

I have three passions in life: music, fashion, and technology. I often combine the three to add extra marketing and uniqueness. I started out, I guess, like many other kids wanting to play the saxophone because I saw a picture of John Coltrane holding one. A crazy thing happened while I was pursuing my musical goals. I was thrust into the fashion scene and became a well known urban designer in Chicago. Read More
