I have been playing music an instrument for about 23 years now. I started when I was 4 on piano and later picked up clarinet at 10, and going on to learn most of the band instruments along the way. I pursued clarinet performance in college and was principal of the orchestra for the last two years. I currently work full time as a 1st grade teacher as well as perform in various ensembles in the Sacramento area. Read More

I believe that a strong foundation is essential for steady progress and confident performance. A comprehensive approach is my preference. Therefore, when I teach piano, I prefer Faber and Faber Piano Adventures paired with A Dozen a Day for added technique. Since many students in this school district are in band or orchestra, I usually use Essential Elements for Strings, Brass, and Woodwinds. I spend a reasonable amount of time preparing my students for our recitals and many of them join in the group songs, which have included "What a Wonderful World", "Happy", and currently "The Theme From Midnight Cowboy".

My teaching experience reaches back to my college days. Whether teaching private lessons to individual students, giving feedback to fellow students, or teaching large groups, I have both private and professional experience teaching. Through varied methods based upon each student's individual needs, I target the areas of each student's playing that most needs improvement. By tailoring each lesson to the individual student, I encourage my students to succeed at their own pace and with maximum results. Read More
