I offer flexible online sessions through Wyzant’s platform, making it easy to learn from anywhere. My goal? To empower you to express yourself through music, whether you’re a complete novice or taking your first steps toward a bigger dream. Beyond technical skills, I bring a passion for storytelling through music, drawing from my own experience as a performer and creator to inspire you.
