I’m a jazz pianist and educator with experience in performance and teaching. I studied jazz piano at the Thompson Jazz Studies Program at CU Boulder, excelling in music theory, aural skills, and composition. My skills were further developed through programs like the NYU Steinhardt Summer Jazz Improv and Composers Workshop, the Interlochen Summer Intensive, and the Berklee College of Music Aspire Program.
I’ve taught piano at a performing arts camp in upstate New York and tutored students...

Second lesson
Had my second lesson with Ethan. He really helped me with my college music theory homework. Especially for reading music. I did very well in my previous assignment that I completed together with him. And so I wanted to work on this new assignment too. What I also love about our lessons is that he always plays his own piano compositions as well as the movies and tv shows he does scores for. Very cool. Learnt a lot this session.

Great teacher and mentor - goes the extra mile
I had a lesson with Ethan for my music theory class at CU Boulder and it was honestly one of the best music tutoring sessions I have had. He explained things in a way that finally clicked for me and and he did not mind slowing down or re-explaining until I got it. What I really appreciated is that he didn’t just stick to the textbook - he asked about my own music and ended up giving me extra time to go through Logic Pro X. He showed me how I could actually use the theory I am learning in class to make my own compositions stronger - which was really valuable. Ethan clearly knows his stuff - but he Is also patient and easy to talk to. The session felt more like working with a mentor than just a tutor. I left feeling way more confident about my class and also more inspired about my own music writing. I have already decided I will be taking another lesson with him. Highly recommend!
