The most important thing to me is to make sure my students love what they do. So I like to make sure that I'm always challenging them but never pushing them too hard, helping them get better at their own pace.

Obviously, sometimes it may seem like a lot of work, but it isn't expected to be perfect at every lesson! Read More

However, I have a small amount of jazz training that I would be more than happy to share as well! Read More

I believe that music should be a satisfying endeavor. Learning music should be a great balance of having fun in the moment, and the joy of seeing oneself grow and progress as an artist over time.

I like to talk to each student or parent about their goals in music with the understanding that many have very different goals. Read More

As a teacher, I strive to be encouraging, yet work to challenge each of my students to become their best. Students have different goals, and I strive to help them achieve those goals in the best way possible.
