So, forget the stuffy classrooms. My lessons go down in my tranquil studio in the beautiful Santa Fe, where the melodies flow freely and the vibe is nothing short of harmonious.

A bit about me...

Live Music Performance

​​​

With a Bachelor’s Degree from the Los Angeles College of Music, I’ve had the privilege of sharing my musical journey on platforms like CNN, ABC’s Vista L.A., LA WEEKLY, OC WEEKLY, and NPR. I’ve performed at prestigious venues, including Amoeba Music in Hollywood and The Greek Theatre, and opened concerts for internationally acclaimed Latin artists.

 

As a graduate of the Los Angeles College of Music, I later joined the teaching staff at Hollywood Music Academy. Teaching is a deeply personal experience for me—one that I cherish and value immensely. We all remember that one teacher who inspired us and helped us unlock our potential. That’s the mark of a great educator.

 

In my classes, I focus on engaging students and ensuring they avoid the same pitfalls I encountered in my early music education. My own experiences with rigid and uninspiring lessons motivated me to create an environment where learning feels free, creative, and enjoyable. I strive to help students develop a strong understanding of music theory and ear training, enabling them to truly grasp why certain chords resonate together or what makes their favorite songs captivating.

 

By nurturing this understanding, my students can elevate their skills—whether it’s mastering their instrument, refining their voice, honing their songwriting, or diving into music production—on a whole new level.
