Private Studio
I maintain a private studio of about 20 students, ranging in age from eight through amateur adult. I teach through the fundamentals of classical technique with a strong emphasis on music theory and vocabulary. I am a big supporter of each student forging their own musical path and am always happy to explore other genres including folk, pop, etc.

In-Person / Virtual
Lessons are currently taking place both in-person and virtually. All in-person students are required to wear a mask for the entirety of their lesson. (I do the same.)
In-person lessons take place in my home studio in Phoenixville, PA. Virtual lessons take place via Zoom.
