As a dedicated Carnegie Hall Music Educator with a solid educational foundation of a BS in Applied Music, I am passionate about nurturing musical talent and inspiring young minds. My expertise spans across multiple instruments, including piano, guitar, vocals, ukulele, violin, and recorders. Through comprehensive music lessons, I aim to instill a deep appreciation for music and develop a strong foundation in technique and theory. Guiding students through the intricate world of melodies and harmonies, my goal is to foster a lifelong love for music and to encourage artistic expression.

"I just wanted to take a moment to thank you for everything you shared with us in Record Production this semester. I genuinely feel like this class changed the way I listen to and understand music. Before this class, I would mostly just listen to songs as a listener, but now I catch myself noticing production choices, vocal layers, effects, textures, and so many small details that I never paid attention to before. I feel like my ear for music developed so much, and that honestly means a lot to me as someone who wants to keep growing as an artist. I also really appreciated the way you taught the class and shared your knowledge with us. It made the whole process feel exciting and inspiring instead of intimidating, and it pushed me to want to keep creating and learning more outside of school.
