Background Check

I love the ability to inspire and share my talents and skills with others. It gives me joy to see my students become more and more excited about studying and developing their own musical dreams and talents.

Every person is unique, so I make every lesson with each individual student unique as well. I like to customize my lessons focusing on what my students want to learn and are passionate about while staying committed to teaching them valuable skills such as; note reading, ear training, music theory, and technique. These skills will help them gain an edge becoming valuable and sought after musicians in their future musical journey.

I am professional composer, arranger, instructor, and producer. I hold a degree in performance and composition from Berklee, College of Music. Living in Los Angeles for many years, I have worked alongside world-renowned musicians as a string coach, conductor and private instructor at the Los Angeles Philharmonic Youth Orchestra, YOLA as well as worked as a piano accompanist for the City of Angels Ballet Company. I now work as a songwriter & lyricist for upcoming artists and as an arranger for my own instrumental hymn project; which currently sells in select stores and online.

I LOVE Rock Climbing!
