I am a Brazilian musician born into a musical family who began studying piano at the age of six with my aunt, and the violin in my church. I had a great experience as a violinist and as a violin teacher. Even though I started playing the cello, I always have spent time as a violin teacher and doing courses about violin and viola pedagogy as well. I started studying the cello with great teachers in Brazil, among them: Fabio Presgrave (Juilliard School) Andre Micheletti (Indiana University) and Dennis Parker (Louisiana State University), and have played in several masterclasses with great cellists as Marek Jerie (Guarneri Trio Prague).

I enjoy accommodating students with the exact type of lessons they need. For beginners I use a slow approach at first, attempting to minimize the chance of bad habits. We begin with starting with proper hold of the instruments, left hand placement, and simple pizzicato; the same would be done with guitar. After a methodical start we would launch into various selections of repertoire which all foster growth and steady challenge. Read More

For students of ages 13-18, it is essential to understand the student's experience level and where they are musically and otherwise. I will adjust my style to the needs of the student, if their interest is purely personal enjoyment up to college audition requirements. I encourage students of this age range to perform at recitals, as it builds their confidence level as performers and presenters. Performances also help individuals gain confidence to not only perform in public, but also present: lectures, speeches, and other public speaking opportunities. Read More
