I’ve been teaching piano and theory for over 18 years. As an instructor, my mission is to help others discover the countless benefits that piano has to offer throughout all stages of life.
I offer fun and innovative music lessons to students of all ages, ensuring a safe and supportive learning environment. In my lessons, I customize each student's program to accommodate their learning style, incorporating performance, sight-reading, ear training, and rhythm exercises. Through all stages of musical growth, I encourage my students and provide them with ongoing support.
