*** Lesson Details ***
I am pretty easy going. I want you to feel comfortable and at ease, but we do need to focus and can have fun doing it. :)
I utilize various methods for each instrument, which is determined by the students learning style and ability; needs, so this can change as time goes on (not sticking to one particular publishers materials). I have done (and continue to do) extensive research into materials available for each instrument I teach, and supplement with my own, to utilize the best out there for "YOU" for the best possible progress. While ensuring an extremely well-rounded musical education, so you can progress at the best possible rate. Since each student's potential is different, each will progress differently. This is also determined by your dedication to daily practice (the more you practice, the quicker you will progress & the more accomplished you will become). This is a 'Team Effort'; I give the guidance and tools. You practice, utilize learn these tools, and off we go! The sky is the limit!

very young age, I received a Bachelor of Science Degree in Genetics from the University of British Columbia, while working as a professional Polynesian dancer crossing the Pacific for numerous performances.

In the beginning of my performance career, I appeared as a finalist in the Voice of the Philippines and Canadian Idol. I then performed on the road in China, Philippines, Japan, South Korea, UK, Ireland, Hawaii, Polynesia throughout Canada and the USA. In addition, my voice has appeared in TV & Film.

As an educator, I’m proud to say that many of my students have won the highest vocal awards at International Music Competitions, scored high on their music exams and progressed to acceptance at top music universities including NYU, Manhattan.
I teach my clients in my creative and comfortable home teaching studio in Nashville and online. I work with singers, pianists, songwriters and young producers of all ages and experience levels. The instruction is tailored to the individual musical goals of each student across many different genres.

I am a firm believer that great technique is essential to every style. I look forward to meeting you and helping you to become a better musician!

d have more power for speed and/or polymeric training. I can help clients recover from old or recent injuries and work with anyone that hasn’t been deemed permanent disabled.

I competed in the Junior Olympics twice in the 4x1m relay and the 100m dash. As a result I have been able to perfect my craft with some of track and field’s most amazing athletes such as Chauntae Bayne and Sanya Richards. Speed conditioning is one of my multiple specializations with the understanding that every client will have their own unique strengths and weakness in all categories of fitness training.

My love and passion for health and wellness allows me to share the importance of exercise with every client that trains with me. I truly enjoy the wide range of workouts that are ever so growing on a daily basis resulting in the different variations of fitness training I present to my clients. Whether it be in the gym, on the track or at the park I look forward to meeting with you, getting active and restoring your fitness journey!
