When meeting a new student, I try to make the student comfortable and at ease. Singing is such a personal thing, so feeling safe is important. I begin by asking about a students goals and getting to know them. I discuss breathing, technique and their musical backgroud so I can figure out how to best help that student. We are all at different stages of our musical journeys - no two students are the same. Read More

I am a dedicated music teacher based in southern California who loves spreading my love for music with other students. I graduated from Indiana University with a Master of Music degree in Percussion Performance with an outside area study of jazz improvisation. I've been fortunate enough to tour the country including a performance in Carnegie Hall in New York city. I currently play and write music with multiple groups as a percussionist, drummer, vibraphonist, and steel drummer in the Indianapolis area. Read More

I am so excited to see my students grow in their vocal craft. Using correct placement and vocal methods, I hope for all of my students to develop healthy, fluid, and consistency of sound flow! I promise I am patient, kind, empathetic, and I understand that while getting proper vocal technique is important, there is nothing more important than mental health. If a student comes in feeling stressed out or unwell, I will do my best to bring them into a more positive mindset. Read More

For piano, I typically use the Faber Piano Adventures Series; however, I am open to other method books as well. The Faber series has theory, technique, lesson, and performance books, each with different skills and techniques to learn. I find that those books offer the most comprehensive learning. In addition to the Faber books, I also utilize online worksheets for supplemental learning. For guitar, I typically use online worksheets and chord sheets, and from there, I encourage students to purchase specific guitar books they are interested in (for example, Disney books, classic rock books, Beatles books, etc.).

I like to begin all my students on a combination of technical studies and enjoyable/familiar melodies. This will help them learn the fundamentals in a rewarding way, because as they progress they will continue to learn new songs week after week. This is much more rewarding than checking of series of technical exercises. Additionally it is important to have both small goals to achieve each week and large goals to achieve over a number of months, so my students can be aware and proud of their progress over time.
