I began teaching music while studying Composition at Berklee College of Music over 15 years ago. My style and format has changed through the years. What I work with students on at the core is finding what makes the music sing within them, and bringing it out. There are many techniques that I use, and they vary depending on the student and the goals. The opportunity to share my passion for this craft is a huge gift and continues to cultivate lots of joy.
