Teaching Philosophy

I believe that there is a fine line between hobby and work, and I tailor my teaching to reflect that. No two students are the same, and I work to ensure that no matter their background, they will not only improve at the keyboard but enjoy their journey as well.

I've worked with students of all ages and backgrounds, from curious beginners to intermediate students preparing for recitals. Each student gets a unique lesson plan — I see it as a collaboration. My years of training at Berklee College of Music, combined with my background in music theory, have inspired me to teach with care and precision.
