Philosophy Statement
“To ignite one’s passion for music, to express that passion with sound through training.”
Music is a language of expression; you can feel the performer's mood through the performance. To translate the abstract pictures and emotions in your mind into concrete sound. You will need to refine your technique, touch and musical ideas. Students routinely practice technique, finger exercises, understanding music theory, background story/history of the music during the lesson in order to become a more rounded musician.
Music studies had been passed down for generations, and I would love to be a part of that network to pass down this incredible language to the next generation of musicians.

Giving back to the community
At the beginning of this year, I dedicated a portion of the lesson fees as a donation to the local organization.
To my surprise, I have surpassed the goal and I have donated a total of $1,260.00 to Trenton and Belleville hospitals, food banks, and the Sick Kids Foundation.
Thank you, everyone, for choosing to study music with me, and I would love to achieve a higher goal for next year.
