My musical background is extremely diverse, so virtually anything you want to get out of our lessons, I'll be able to give you.

This experience has taught me how to apply each method, depending on the situation, to produce the best results possible. I have comprehensive knowledge of the standard classical and jazz repertoire, and can easily develop an effective plan of study for any student, at any level. I also write a fair amount of music, so depending on the student, that could become a large focus of our lessons. Most importantly though, I know how to keep a lesson interesting and how to engage a student of any age and skill level in a way that will motivate them to work on their craft consistently and effectively. Really excited to work with anyone interested in getting something out of music!

I balance a technique oriented approach with creativity and exploration. I am well-versed in many styles and genres of music. In addition to classical music, I specialize in improvisation and electronic music composition/production.
