I believe my job as a teacher is to collaborate with a student to overcome a challenge. Do you want to write a symphony? Great! Do you want to learn how to play those darn barre chords? Let's do it! I'm on your side.
With every lesson, I aim to meet students where they are. By tailoring lessons to fit their backgrounds, interests, and needs, together we create an environment that emphasizes progress over perfection. Every student brings something new to the table and I strive to use their individual strengths to build new skills in a way that is engaging, challenging, and supportive.
We're here to make music, after all. What's better than that?
I have a Bachelor of Music from New York University, majoring in Music Theory and Composition, with a concentration in Film Scoring and a minor in Educational Theatre.
I have studied guitar and piano each for over ten years in a variety of contemporary styles (pop, folk, bluegrass, rock, musical theatre), as well as voice and brass in school.
I've had the pleasure of studying with teachers from all over the world and in a number of musical styles and mediums (musical theatre, film and video game music, contemporary and folk songwriting, jazz, classical, klezmer). Here, I developed a diverse musical background, and I learned how to teach in a variety of ways.
New York University - Honors Scholar (suma cum laude)

Over the last 5 years, I've worked as a composer for film and theatre, meaning I get to write a wide range of styles and genres-- everything from traditional musical theatre orchestral to toy box percussion to whale noises (really!)-- and I have an extensive knowledge of music software (Logic Pro, Pro-Tools, Finale, Sibelius), studio recording sessions and the technical side of working in music. I'm excited to get the chance to share all of this with you!
