My Personal Philosophy

My task as a teacher is to help students strive for musical excellence by building a complete understanding of piano, artistry, and musical history. All people have different levels of ambition and skill, so the process of realizing this goal is different for every student. The purpose of my studio is to create a space for students to hone their musical skills and self-motivation. I want every student to know there is always more to learn, even when they become very experienced. Above all, I want my students to have fun! Music is an amazing gift that should be nurtured and enjoyed. I was very blessed to have excellent teachers who inspired me to discover the joy of creating music. I hope to offer that same inspiration to my students.
