We will be working from lesson books specifically designed for you, and each weekly lesson will be documented in a notebook as a daily practice reference guide. Read More
Instruments: Guitar Voice Ukulele Electric Guitar Classical Guitar Acoustic Guitar
For the beginner we start of with fundamental chord and note structure but I feel it is important to progress into applying these fundamentals to actually playing music as quickly as possible. Over the first few lessons I will learn what types of music the student is most interested in and will blend the lessons to include both what the student wants to learn with what the student needs to learn to become well rounded guitar player and musician.

My career spanned working with Wesley Stromberg (AGT winner), and Paxton Ingram (The Voice Top 10), MacKenzie Bourg (American Idol), and Andrew Foy (100+ MM on YouTube). I served as the lead project manager at Gramophone Media in Manhattan, where during my time Gramophone signed K-pop acts BTS, Tiffany Young, and Monsta X. I have taught musicians of all levels for nearly a decade, and have helped clients win auditions, gain millions of streams, and find joy in music. Read More
Instruments: Piano Voice
For students with previous piano experience, I first assess knowledge and ability in order to assign the proper level of either Bastien's Piano Basics or other solo repertoire. For voice students, I conduct an assessment of their individual range and skills in order to find classical or musical theatre repertoire that encourages development of proper vocal technique. I also work with each student to find modern music that they love and will help target their specific singing goals. Read More
Instruments: Voice
I have been working professionally in the industry for ten years. I have spent years perfecting my craft and would love to share my knowledge with others. Having an undergraduate degree in Commercial Voice has afforded me the opportunity to learn various styles of singing, This offers my students a unique chance to learn how to emulate their favorite commercial artists and create their own style within various genres. I have a strong classical foundation as well and would be happy to share my expertise in classical and operatic styles. Read More
Instruments: Piano Voice Cello
Have fun. Love what you do. If it stops being fun push a little further ahead and see what happens. All it takes is a little ember to start a fire and I am ready to help my students find that fire within themselves. Its not always going to be easy and they will fall and stumble and when that does happen (and it will) I will be there to show them how to pick themselves up. Read More
Instruments: Guitar Voice Bass Guitar Electric Guitar Classical Guitar Acoustic Guitar
I have been teaching students in music for 5+ years now, with guitar being my primary instrument. I was initially self taught, learning mainly from the countless forums, videos, and banks of articles and knowledge that the internet had to offer, but that would only take me so far. I then decided to major in music, for which I'm still undertaking, which has taken my musicianship much higher. I use a combination of teaching styles accumulated from my own time learning to expedite my students progress, so they don't have to take as long as I did to get to their goals on their instrument.

Instruments: Drums Latin Percussion
If you play more than one instrument, how did you decide to start playing the second? (Or 3rd, 4th, 5th, etc)!
I decided to learn how to play Timbales when I caught myself learning Latin Jazz patterns and variations on a drum kit a number of years ago. I quickly realized that Timbales have a different function than drums. A different sound, and decided to buy a set of latin percussion instruments and learned how to play them with YouTube, and of course also learned by ear listening to a lot of latin jazz. Later on, I performed live countless times playing the instrument
What is your favorite style/genre of music to play and why?
I truly love Latin Music. It's very diverse and challenging to play. I always listen to and practice Cumbia, Salsa, Merengue, Latin Jazz, Reggeaton, etc. Latin Styles are always super tasty. After that, I really enjoy playing European Metal, very beautiful as well
If you weren't a musician what do you think you'd be doing instead?
I would be an army member, I am planning to join the army to continue my education and keep growing as a musician as well. I would definitely be serving the US nation in the army. Will do in the future :)
What is your dream piece to perform and why?
I don't have a dream piece to perform and here's why, every style is unique and you can make the most out of any combination of sounds and times, serving any song in any genre. I think it's important to have goals, but not a specific song as a climax of what drumming is
What does a normal practice session look like for you?
I stretch, warm up and go back to basics practicing rudiments every time. Then I develop patters and start to experiment with different patterns and sounds. Always with principle and relaxing to the fullest when praticing, to later perform how I practiced :)
Do you use specific teaching methods or books? (Ex: Alfred, Bastion, Suzuki, Hal Leonard) Why did you choose them if you did?
I use the Drum Method by Haskell W. Harr as well as Funk Drumming by Jim Payne. I decide to teach with those two because it almost any level of drumming and really make it easy for the student to progress efficiently
What do you think is the hardest thing to master on your instrument?
Music Theory and Studying charts is probably the most challenging part about playing the drums, since it's a lot of memorizing and practice at first, also it sort of takes the "feel" aspect away of making music a lot of times
Have any of your students won awards or been selected for special honors? How have they succeeded?
No, not yet :) I look forward to prepare students of all ages to be proficient and succesfully develop their talents winning school awards and having their hard wrok be rewarded
What musical accomplishments are you most proud of?
Proud of being hired by local bands in Bolivia, because I played latin jazz and and afro-latin percussion instruments and music. As well as playing for a entire stadium with my church once, they gave us 30 min, and we made the most out of it.
Why did you choose your primary instrument?
Because I alwyays had interest in playing the drums, since I was 3, playing with a toy drum set and my grandmothers house. I was always driven by beat of any song and would learn how to play it by ear before learning how to play the instrument
When will I start to see results?
It depends on the student, but I would think that within the first month you'll be developing consisting skill and results will start to show. Remember, consistensy is key :)
Did you have a teacher that inspired you to go into music? How did they inspire you?
I had a teacher that inspired me with every lesson, gave me always good advice and expanded my creativity by teaching me how to play different styles of music and embodying the way other musicians play
How do I know if my child is ready to start lessons?
If he speaks his native language and understands it, then he is old enough :) Music is a language, you learn to understand it and to speak it
What advice do you have about practicing effectively?
Consistency is key. Practice always at your level, concentrating on technique and what it all comes own to in the end, making music. Being yourself and developing your own artistic expression is always the goal
Does music run in your family? Tell us a little about your musical family members.
No, it dosen't. In my family, my mom is an HR Manager, my father is a criminal lawyer and my brother is a boxer. I'm the only musician in the family thus far :)
When did you decide to become a professional musician? Was it a gradual decision or was there a defining moment for you?
It was a gradual decision, I decided to continue my journey as a musician just for the love of it. I was practicing 2 hours a day so it was inevitable
