my teaching approach

Music is Life. Take the time to connect with your inner music. Accepting the challenge and developing music skills is one of the most rewarding gifts you can give to yourself or a child.

My 20 years of teaching experience has led me to develop a personalized teaching practice.I offer unique music lessons tailored toward the level of each student from beginners to advanced making the connection between "real" industry experience and the best way to achieve short and long term goals through formal music education.
