I owe a great deal of my character development and work ethic to the benefits of music. I taught a handful of students during the year of 2012 in Kentucky but focused primarily on my studies after transferring to San Diego.

I have a considerable amount of experience with children through teaching, volunteering, and childcare however I'm a firm believer that you can begin learning an instrument at any age and I welcome all into my studio to learn music.

My main priority in every lesson is to make learning an instrument fun and comfortable. I have a plan mapped out for every lesson, for every student.

I find it important to make every lesson enjoyable, so it is crucial that the student enjoys the homework assigned when they leave the lesson. Read More

I started learning the violin with a private tutor when I was 12 years old and then subsequently continued my instruction at the Tehran Conservatory of Music's nightly program.

During this period I also started to work with media as the producer of classical music programs for radio and television. Read More
