Education
BM in Music Performance, specializing in Vocal Performance | California State University, Long Beach | 2020
MVP in Vocal Pedagogy | Westminster Choir College, Rider University, NJ | anticipating completion in 2026

My piano and vocal studio is dedicated to empowering aspiring musicians through positive reinforcement, critical thinking, and the development of healthy, sustainable techniques. I emphasize a holistic approach to music-making that nurtures both technical skill and emotional well-being.

With a foundation in Montessori philosophy and a commitment to decolonization, I strive to build a music community that is inclusive and comprehensive. My goal is to share and cultivate a passion for music while fostering a supportive environment with an emphasis on mental health. I am passionate about creating a safe and supportive environment, actively challenging systemic biases, and collaborating with students to achieve their goals.

I welcome students of all races, genders, ages, abilities, and socio-economic backgrounds. To ensure my lessons are accessible, I offer sliding scale rates for BIPoC, queer, and low-income students who are eager to pursue their musical passions.
