Instruments: Piano Voice Keyboard

My teaching style is patient, encouraging, and results-driven, designed to meet each student exactly where they are. I believe every student learns differently, so I take a personalized approach—breaking concepts down into simple, practical steps that build both skill and confidence. I combine strong musical fundamentals with hands-on learning, so students aren’t just practicing exercises—they’re actively making music from the very beginning. Whether it’s piano or vocal instruction, I focus on helping students understand what they’re doing, not just memorize it, which leads to faster progress and lasting growth. Read More

My goal with my students has always been to make them as self-sufficient as they want to be given whatever music they are working to master. I love making people their best versions of themselves. I simply fine tune what is already there. My job is to set a regime within reason of their goal, and hold them to achieving the goal. I will make the bed all the student has to do is lay in  it.

Emotion inspires creativity, creativity can take one form in music, music becomes instrumental performance or vocal performance. From there, one can branch out into formal disciplines such as dance, theater, and solo music. The phrase "I love you" can transform from a simple statement, into a song such as "Speak Softly, Love" from The Godfather. From there, when a song isn't enough, "I love you" can become movement such as the iconic "Shall We Dance" from The King and I. Read More

My teaching experience began during my college years, as I commenced providing private lessons on a part-time basis eight years ago. For the past five years, I have been devoted to teaching students in my home studio. I emphasize the importance of regular practice on a consistent schedule, particularly for younger students, as this approach significantly contributes to their progress and fosters a passion for the instrument. I have also observed that incorporating a mix of classical and contemporary music greatly enhances students' enjoyment of the piano, thereby motivating them to practice and continue their learning journey.

Instruments: Piano Voice

A review of where a student is in their musical journey is done before any lessons are given in order to make a lesson plan designed specifically for them. I inquire as to what the advanced students want to accomplish with their lessons so they can be placed on a path to successfully reach their goals. All students are encouraged to practice in order to reinforce what they have previously learned. Read More

Instruments: Voice Music

I have no expectations of my students until they show me what they're capable of. After our first two lessons, I start to really stress the importance of practicing on their own time as well. Singing is part muscle memory and your muscles can't memorize what they aren't consistently doing! I use a very kinesthetic approach to my teaching in that I focus on how the entire body feels when my student is singing the correct way versus how it feels when they are singing incorrectly (unhealthily).
