A little about me…

If you’re new here, welcome! I’m so excited to chat with you and hear all about how you’d like to grow as a musician.

I started piano at age seven, and quickly fell in love with all things music. Since then, my musical journey has taken me from Indy to the Netherlands and back, from classical music to interdisciplinary art making to composing original music (and many things in between). From all of these eclectic experiences, I’ve picked up all sorts of tools to help you on you own musical journey.

My approach focuses on self-driven learning, developing healthy technique, and ensuring a well-rounded musical education that prepares you to achieve your musical dreams.

With over 9 years of experience teaching students of all ages and skill levels, I have developed several unique strategies and skills for a variety of challenges and needs.

  • Private Piano Lessons

    30, 45, and 60 minute private lessons for all ages and skill levels focusing on healthy technique and holistic musicianship. I provide lessons for a variety of styles, including classical, pop, and CCM.

  • Music Tutoring

    Music Theory, Aural Skills, Beginning Composition, Intro to Ableton, and more!

  • Creative Mentorship and Accountability

    Helping you identify you creative goals and move through blocks, providing gentle encouragement along the way.

  • Flexible Lessons

    For those with a busy schedule looking for a la carte packages, online lessons, or customized asynchronous learning.
