My lessons are tailored to each student's strengths and interests. I will include instruction that leads to success in your own personal musical interests, and find appropriate exercises and repertoire for these.
After each lesson, I will send practice instructions and additional resources to prepare for the following lesson.

What do you love most about your job?
My goal is to create a safe and positive environment for students to learn and enjoy their instrument. I teach students with little to no experience. I look forward to working with you!
My favorite part about teaching lessons is being able to share something I have a passion for, and seeing others excited for it as well. I enjoy teaching adults because I can help them achieve what is usually a life-long dream. I enjoy teaching kids because I can see their potential, and hope they'll find passion from what I share with them. All in all, I enjoy being able to share my abilities and dedication with my community, in hopes I can inspire someone else.
What inspired you to start your own business?
My grandfather had always wanted to learn piano, and when he got sick and had to stop working I began to teach him. Being able to bring him so much joy and sharing my interest with him and others is what started my path down teaching. Now I am teaching private lessons full time and look forward to sharing more music!
Why should our clients choose you?
I always try to find what will suit each individual student best. I know that there are many ways of learning, and some people respond better to certain methods than others. Typically at a beginner's stage, I don't start with teaching entire pieces, but I always try to keep whatever music or exercises we do interesting, as a way to keep the student engaged. I never teach two students the same way, because everyone is different and has their own way of learning.
Can you provide your services online or remotely? If so, please add details.
Unfortunately I do not offer virtual lessons. Especially for younger students and beginners, I find the best musical education comes from an in-person experience, and I support many of my lesson plans with kinesthetic activities.
Piano Lessons

- Learn to express yourself through music
- Gain a deeper understanding when playing and listening to music
- Explore different styles and experiences
- Develop a deeper musical appreciation
