ABOUT ME
Hi there! My name is Eric, and I am a composer, performer, and educator based in the Los Angeles area. I am a classically-trained composer who professionally scores for games and films. I am a classically trained pianist/organist as well as vocalist who is versed in jazz, pop, and musical theatre styles. My immense teaching background includes: being the director of the Video Game Music Institute (www.vgminstitute.com), where I train aspiring composers how to compose video game music, teaching accredited pop music courses at San Francisco State University, local and international music schools, and my own private studio. Students have studied with me worldwide, ranging from beginners to professionals and music students from the finest music schools, such as Berklee College of Music and New York University.

MY TEACHING
A dedicated and prolific educator with years of experience teaching music at the college level, I offer private instruction in piano, voice, and music composition/ theory via Zoom. Working with students from beginners with no musical background to industry professionals, I love teaching students of all ages and levels, working equally well with children and adults. My lessons are progressive, structured, and fun, built upon personalized curriculums to to help them grow and develop musically. I provide a supportive and engaging approach towards learning the art and craft of music, inspiring my students with a lifelong love of music.
PIANO LESSONS
I offer piano lessons for students of all ages and levels, from classical to pop to jazz. I studied Piano Performance under distinguished professor Victoria Neve at San Francisco State University, performing two major solo piano recitals. Alongside developing solid piano technique and fostering musicianship, I prioritize the understanding of music theory, helping my students gain fluency in the language of music. For classical piano students, I incorporate the Associated Board of the Royal Schools of Music (ABRSM) exam pieces into my teaching. By working through progressive study of scales, chords, and pieces, my students learn to develop healthy practice habits, leading to mastery of their repertoire. For students learning popular music, I select diverse music that builds a student's technical ability to perform their favorite songs confidently.
VOICE LESSONS
An experienced vocalist and songwriter who has performed classical, musical theatre, jazz, R&B, and pop genres, I offer vocal lessons for students who want to learn the fundamentals of singing. Students will understand how to engage their diaphragm and improve breath control, practice technical exercises such as scales and arpeggios that will strengthen their voice and expand their range, and improve their intonation. An experienced performer, I help students workshop their songs and prepare for performances.
