I am a passionate pianist and organist--as well as vocalist--that loves working with students of all ages that are serious about learning their musical craft.  In 2004, I graduated from the University of Texas in San Antonio with a Bachelor's in Music Education.  My primary instrument is piano, however, I am well versed in my secondary instruments of organ and voice.  I frequently serve as an accompanist around the San Antonio area and play a myriad of musical styles from Bach to ZZ Top.

I haven't had much teaching experience, but I have worked with teenagers throughout this last year while getting my Associates of Arts degree over at Lone Star Community College.

I helped out three seniors in high school this last semester, and two out of the three of them are actually heading to Texas colleges to pursue a career in music. Read More

I have learned so much over the past few years teaching and professionally performing. I taught children ages 4-18 piano, voice and dance lessons. I discovered each age group requires a different style of teaching. I pride myself off of making sure the child feels comfortable in the lesson first and foremost. I like to connect with the student over common likes and dislikes. My style of teaching is positive and encouraging. Read More

Instruments: Voice

For students of all skill levels, I begin by communicating with them about their goals and continue on with a gentle warm up. I then guide the student through various exercises that are designed to improve and strengthen specific areas of the voice, specific registers, problem areas, and so on. If the student has a particular singing or vocal obstacle that they are experiencing, we will give extra time and attention to creating steps that will improve those issues. Read More
