About
I have been teaching piano for almost two decades. I have worked with hundreds of students of all ages and levels. My passion for teaching music has now expanded to ukulele lessons as well! I have a background in music composition and continue to work on original music. I have also performed at Carnegie Hall and numerous other venues.
The process of making music is one that balances both heart and mind. In a world where we are so consumed by constant activities, music connects to a deeper place within us that is both present and calm, focused and relaxed. This process is beautifully to experience and one that I thoroughly enjoy exploring with every student.
