Welcome to my page! I'm a pianist, composer, and music producer from the US with more than 10 years of teaching experience. I have a deep passion for music education and extensive experience in the music industry as I worked for the Recording Academy, which is the organization that produces the GRAMMY awards. I have a Bachelor's Degree in Music Technology and Composition from the San Francisco Conservatory of Music and am currently continuing my music studies at Abbey Road Institute. I am a patient, kind, and fun teacher who guides and motivates my students to reach their full musical potential.

With me, students can learn how to play their favorite songs on the piano, read sheet music, improvise on the piano as well as music theory (scales, melodies, chords and advanced theory). Students can also learn how to compose, notate, and produce their own music. I also teach music production in Logic Pro X, where students can learn how to make original beats, record their voice and instrument, and use midi instruments to create songs. I can teach just about anything musical that the student wishes to learn!

During our lessons the student sets the pace. I tailor each lesson to specifically fit my student's interest and abilities to ensure they are not only progressing, but also enjoying the process of making music. If you're already playing the piano, we can work on improving your technique, expanding your repertoire, and challenging yourself to learn more difficult and rewarding pieces. If you're new to music production, we can start with learning the software and producing simple tracks using your favorite style of music as a reference point. If you're beginning to write your own music, I can share with you tools and techniques to take your melody or lyrics and turn it into a song. I use an overhead camera to ensure the highest quality lessons.

Previous musical training is not required. My lessons are for all ages and levels of experience, so feel free to book me!

Music Production

Music Production

I am a music production teacher with a degree in Music Technology and Composition from the San Francisco Conservatory of Music. I've worked for the Recording Academy, which is the organization that puts on the grammy awards and have collaborated with some of the Bay Areas best producers. I have taught music production, songwriting, sound design, and recording to students grade 3-12 at Isha Home School, an international boarding school in Southern India. I have tutored students 1-on-1 of all ages, both beginners and advanced producers looking to take the next step with their music. If you're new to music production, we can start with learning the software and producing simple tracks using your favorite style of music as a reference point. If you're a songwriter interested in recording and producing your originals, we can work on translating your ideas into Logic Pro X. If you produce beats and want to transform them into complete songs, I can work with you on music theory, melodic ideas, and song direction as well as story-telling through lyrics. If you're already producing music and want to broaden your expertise or just need a little guidance in some areas, we can go deeper in those specific areas so you can finish your tracks faster. If you're a more advanced producer looking to expand your knowledge, we can deep dive into sound design, sound layering, VSTs, as well as musical analysis.

During our lessons the student sets the pace. Over the past 10 years I've helped countless students gain a better understanding of music theory and technique.

My lessons are for all ages and levels of experience, so feel free to book me!

Danielle is a Great Song Writer

I have been working with Danielle for about two months. I started taking lessons with her to enhance my ability to create melodic phrases. She brought so much more to the table regarding songwriting skills than just melodic phasing. Such as chord progressions that enhance the feeling of a song. Knowing when to insert chord changes on specific word syllables to empathize the feelings of the lyrics. She was also able to take the original lyrics of my songs and cut back on the wordiness to instill more mystery in the song. I’m also extremely impressed with her ability to use syncopation. When I listen to my original song next to the modified version which contains all the changes she suggested, there is a night and day difference. Her version sounds like a hit song.

Knowledgeable and connecting with kids.

Danielle is really connecting well and knows how to make learning fun. My son is enjoying his piano lessons. She is accommodating and willing to teach the modern songs.

Sadhna, 5 lessons with Danielle

Knowledgeable and patient tutor.

I'm a bit slow to learn music theory because I'm not wired that way. But Danielle was patient with my questions and showed several things in the first lesson that already cleared a lot of things I didn't understand before. I highly recommend her!

Sebastian, 9 lessons with Danielle

first session went great ! coming back again !

Danielle was patient and open to me telling her my experience with music. And also finding an agenda when I was not as prepared. She gave me quick pointers I can use in logic and then we went to piano where she taught me how to move across piano and brought understanding to what was abstract. She has helped demystify piano for me. I will be back again
