About
After 20+ years of a private instructor to teach violin/viola for students and adults, and a professional concert musician experiences in San Francisco Bay Area, I have just relocated to State College.
I use a balanced approach of technical studies and appropriate repertoire while still emphasizing that playing the violin & viola should be fun.
Music has always been a big part of my life with both teaching and performing. I enjoy conveying my musical knowledge to those that are eager to learn, for self-enrichment or with a professional goal in mind.
