I’m a music mentor with decades of hands-on experience in piano, voice, guitar, and harmony. My work goes beyond teaching notes—I help students truly understand music, build confidence, and develop skills they can use for a lifetime. My approach is rooted in strong musical foundations and guided by thoughtful, selective use of modern tools—only when they genuinely support clarity, confidence, and meaningful progress. Lessons are practical, personal, and structured to meet each student where they are, whether they’re beginning their musical journey or refining existing skills. I focus on helping students play chords, accompany themselves, strengthen their musical ear, and connect technique with expression. Music should feel empowering, not overwhelming. My goal is to guide each student toward independence, enjoyment, and a deep, lasting relationship with music.
