Hello! I'm 25 year Berklee College of Music Alumnus with 16 years playing experience! I started studying the saxophone at 9 years old and spent most of my early school years performing in community, school, and local college jazz bands around the Seattle-Tacoma area of Washington State. My music has given me the opportunity to travel the world, and in summer of 2016, I conducted a tour of Kenya, Uganda, and Rwanda with my band the AfroXchange in conjunction with music therapy organization Global Youth Groove where I hosted jazz masterclasses, as well as performed at clubs and festivals, and assisted a music therapy team around the countryside.

I've taught private lessons for around four years, since I was a junior in college. I now also teach music theory and composition at The Community Music Center of Boston. I believe that, as great as regular, focused practice is, it is also my job as a private tutor to shape each and every lesson around an individual student's specific needs. I've seen a lot of teachers use a cookie-cutter, one-size-fits-all pedagogical approach, and I don't think that's productive for my students or myself! Read More

Another highlight was the win at the 2016 Renaissance International Competition in Armenia. In 2017, I became the winner of the Boston Symphony Orchestra concerto competition and made my Symphony Hall debut with the Boston Pops under Maestro Keith Lockhart. In 2021 and 2022, I had the honor of winning the Darius Milhaud Competition two years in a row. Among other venues that I had the opportunity to perform are Jordan Hall, Mixon and Kulas Halls, Boston State House, Milton and Newton Town Halls, the Bremen Holocaust Museum, Slosberg Music Center, Carnegie Halls Weill Auditorium, Nashua Community College, Walden Performing Arts Center, Museum of Our National Heritage, Armenian Museum of America, and others.

Once it becomes clear what excites the student the most, I provide the nourishment and structure necessary for fun and progression. I custom tailor our lessons to their wants and needs. If the student has been playing their instrument without lessons I investigate what sounds and styles they apparently are drawn to and consider that when planning lessons. I do a lot of prep work at home and often custom design printouts to supplement any book we will be reading from. Read More
