About
Hello! My approach to teaching beginner and intermediate piano focuses on building a strong, personal connection to the instrument while fostering creativity, technical growth, and confidence in a fun and engaging way. I've been playing for over a decade, and as a Master’s student in Composition at The New School, I love guiding students toward the music they’re passionate about while introducing essential techniques and theory in a way that feels natural and inspiring. Whether a student wants to play for enjoyment or explore composing their own music, I create a supportive space where they can develop their skills and express themselves freely at any level.
