About
I am a singer/songwriter/producer, born and raised in Chicago.
Since 2016, I have been managing a music series entitled Sessions With Tandaleria where I invite artists to perform songs, written and produced by myself, which are also accompanied by live instrumentation.
I believe that the ability to express yourself through music is an important way to exercise your growth as an artist.
I enjoy being able to assist people in their personal growth and their musically journey.

Frequently asked questions
What is your typical process for working with a new student?
I start by assesing the students' foundation and what they're currently experienced in. Once I have a good idea of where they're at, I then determine what they're lacking or need imporvement in. The first session, which is FREE, is most import when gathering this information.
What education and/or training do you have that relates to your work?
I am vocally trained with over 10 years of experience, three of which I have spent as a vocal instructor for School of Rock.
I have also been a well engaged song writer for over 8 years. Song writing structure and the importance of tempo and pacing when vocalizing are a few of the key components I discuss during teaching sessions.
Do you have a standard pricing system for your lessons? If so, please share the details here.
I charge $60 for an hour, $45 dollars for 45min and $30 for 30min lessons. You can also book lessons a month in advance for a discount. A month of hour-long lessons is $220, a month of 45min lessons is $140, and a month of 30min lessons is $100. Each month consists of one lesson per week.
How did you get started teaching?
My love of music, and helping others start learning more about it as well.
