About
I want to help you reach your musical goals, while having fun in the process! I have been fortunate enough to work full time as a professional performer/educator since obtaining a degree in Jazz Performance from Temple University in 2014, and have since completed a Master's Degree in Jazz Studies from The City College of NY. I am very active on the music scene, and as a music educator in the greater NYC area.
I firmly believe that lessons should be catered towards the unique musical goals of the individual. I take pride in finding new ways to teach proper fundamentals and habits in new students, that will ensure long-term success on their instrument and allow them to have fun along the way.
Lessons can be 30, 45, or 60 minutes. Contact me for more info!!
