“Building confidence, discipline, discovery, and joy through music.”
One Studio, Two Paths.
Helping you discover what you can do—and helping your instrument do the same.
I bring the classroom, stage, and repair bench together. That perspective shapes every lesson, every adjustment, and every conversation about your next step.

Because this work is about more than notes and mechanics.
Teaching is a love language.
I believe a teacher does more than share knowledge. A teacher helps someone discover what they are capable of. Whether you are learning your first notes or preparing for an important audition, my goal is to help you build confidence and a lifelong love of making music.
Every instrument tells a story.
Every instrument presents a puzzle, but the most satisfying part is returning it to the purpose it was built for: making music. I approach the bench as a technician, educator, and working musician—listening for the result as carefully as I study the mechanism.

I bring every side of music-making to the work.
I'm an educator, performer, multi-instrumentalist, and repair technician. My work has taken me to stages in the United States, UK, and Asia and across classical, jazz, Indian classical, and flamenco settings.
Instruments are not simply mechanical objects; they are the tools we depend on to communicate.
