About
I have a master's degree in music therapy, as well as B.As in psychology and music, with my specialization in undergrad being cello. I have experience working clinically with a wide variety of people, as well as providing freelance lessons since 2016. I'm passionate about working with students to come up with practice strategies that work for them, prioritizing the student's goals, and formulating lesson plans to help students reach those goals. Because of my music therapy background, I am more than comfortable working with disabled individuals and would be happy to accommodate any learning needs.

Frequently asked questions
What is your typical process for working with a new student?
I like to get to know the students level first by having them play a piece they are familiar with and enjoy, as well as asking them what they personally think their strengths and weaknesses are. My process centers the students goals while also making sure we work on pieces that strengthen their technique and musicality.
What education and/or training do you have that relates to your work?
I have a Bachelors Degree in Music from Seattle University, and play multiple instruments. I have played cello for 14 years, guitar for 8 years, electric bass for 6 years, and piano for 5 years. I have played in orchestras like The Protege Philharmonic in Chicago and the Seattle Collaborative Orchestra as well. I also have extensive live performance experience on guitar and vocals. I have taught private and group lessons through Musika Lessons and Meter Music School.

I started teaching cello to grade school students around the area in high school. I realized how much I loved it and haven't stopped since.
What types of students have you worked with?
I have worked with children aged 6-15. My specialty is music therapy, so I also have a lot of prior experience working with developmentally delayed and disabled children, so this is a population I am very comfortable working with.
What questions should students think through before talking to teachers about their needs?
