Hello! I have several years of experience teaching piano to high-school and college students, both at an intermediate and advanced level. I began learning piano at age 6, and have played competitively, performed in various classical recitals, performed in a jazz ensemble, and accompanied both choirs and orchestras.

I have plenty of practice material and songs ranging from beginner to advanced. I have the mindset that the student should enjoy what they are playing, so we'll look for music that you wish to play, and music that is progressively challenging. You won't be expected to buy any music materials for our lessons.

I'm looking for any student who wants to build a healthy and enjoyable relationship with piano that they will keep throughout their lives.

I hold a master's in classical voice performance from New Jersey City University as well as a graduate diploma in music composition from the Longy School of Music. I received my undergraduate education from New York University and am currently obtaining a master's in composing at Tufts University. My music lessons are informed from the perspective of being both a performing and compositional artist. I strive to foster a complete musical education for my students, and that includes a focus on vocal technique, music theory, pitch recognition, artistry, and somatic alignment. In addition to my extensive musical training, I am also a certified yoga teacher and reiki worker, and I incorporate mind/body modalities into my teaching of the singing and musical arts. Singing is an embodied art form, as the singer's instrument is literally within her or his body, and as such, I work with students to understand how anatomy and mind/body awareness informs vocal technique.
