I tailor my teaching style to my students’ wants and needs and I let each student progress at their own pace.

I focus on technique just as much as developing artistic expression. Read More

My teaching style is relaxed and encouraging of every student. No student should be made to feel less than, regardless of what experience level they are bringing to the studio.
