Patient, personalized instruction that meets you where you are and builds from there.
I don't believe in one-size-fits-all teaching. Whether you're picking up piano for the first time or trying to get your mixes to translate, I meet you where you are and build from there.
My approach combines classical fundamentals with modern relevance. You'll learn proper technique and theory, but always in the context of the music you actually want to make.
I've taught everyone from five-year-olds to adults returning to music after decades away. The common thread? I keep it engaging, I keep it real, and I make sure every lesson moves you forward.
From classical piano to Ableton production, I cover a wide range of musical disciplines.
All levels, from beginner to advanced. Classical, jazz, pop, and contemporary styles. Technique, repertoire, and musicality.
Fundamentals through intermediate. Chords, scales, song-based learning, and music theory applied to the fretboard.
From the basics of notation to advanced harmony. Understand why music works the way it does, not just how to play it.
Develop your ability to identify intervals, chords, and progressions by ear. Essential for any serious musician.
Ableton Live, mixing, mastering, and arrangement. Learn the full production workflow from idea to finished track.
Signal flow, microphone technique, EQ, compression, and other fundamentals every producer should know.
Years of instruction across multiple settings and student types.
One-on-one lessons in piano, guitar, music theory, ear training, and production. Students of all ages and levels.
