I am a recent graduate of the University of Michigan - Ann Arbor, where I received bachelor's degrees in piano performance and philosophy. I have strong passions for philosophy, piano pedagogy, chamber music, and contemporary music. I recently won first place in the Camerata Artists International Virtuoso II Competition, was a gold medal winner in the International Keyboard Odyssiad Competition, and was a finalist in the Jacqueline Avent Concerto Competition at the Sewanee Summer Music Festival, and the University of Michigan Undergraduate Concerto Competition. I attended the Manhattan School of Music Pre-College Division in New York City for 10 years, and the Brearley School for middle and high school.

The primary goal of my teaching is to fully engage my students with piano and music in general in ways that are uniquely meaningful to them. I realize my students come from diverse backgrounds with either some idea of a musical goal, or none at all beyond a general interest in music; my teaching method is catered to every student's individual development. I hope to teach students who not only strive to learn the piano and improve on their skills, but also strive to be artistically and spiritually fulfilled to live better lives.
