As an experienced music professional, I have a strong background in teaching piano to students of all ages and skill levels. Over the past decade, I've had the privilege of working at various private music schools across New England, where I've honed my teaching methods and developed a deep understanding of how to connect with and inspire my students.

My approach to piano instruction is rooted in a solid understanding of music theory, which I incorporate into each lesson to ensure that my students not only learn to play but also comprehend the music they're performing. I believe in tailoring my teaching style to meet the individual needs of each student, whether they're beginners just starting their musical journey or advanced players looking to refine their technique.

Throughout my career, I've also provided vocal coaching, which complements my piano instruction and allows me to offer a well-rounded musical education. My experience in various musical genres, coupled with my formal training from Berklee College of Music, where I earned a Bachelor of Music Degree in Guitar Performance, enables me to bring a diverse perspective to my piano teaching.

I am committed to fostering a positive and encouraging learning environment where students feel motivated to explore their creativity and reach their full potential. My goal is to help each of my students develop not only technical proficiency on the piano but also a genuine love and appreciation for music.
