The goals of my studio are to provide a fun and musical environment to motivate the student to become the best musician they can be. Whether the goal is to learn the basic concepts of music theory, playing or singing for your own enjoyment, developing performance technique, public speaking, preparing for a music career through the college process, or generally feeling more confident - our time together will be spent developing these traits. I tailor my lessons to each student's goals.
Some of the things we use in the studio to heighten the learning experience is technology. Students will have the opportunity to use such pedagogical programs as Home Concert Xtreme, and Classroom Maestro to help develop musicality. Areas of focus: sightreading, transposition, scales & chord structure, harmonization, and creative composition. I relate these ideas in a non-stress yet motivating climate. My "keys" to success are communication and fun!
Skype Lessons are also available!
Recitals are conducted twice a year, in addition to participating in various Festivals, hosted by the local Texas Music Teachers Association and Texas Federation of Music Clubs. Participation is not mandatory, but allows the student to perform in a variety of environments.
My goal is to create life-long learners, so you may always find time for practice and a place to perform great music.
This is my 14th year of teach as a fully-certified music educator: I have taught both middle school band & choir to at-risk youth, as well as elementary music at a private Christian academy. My principal instrument is the saxophone (which I have been playing for 28 years now), and I play many other instruments. As for my formal education: I received the Bachelor of Music Education degree in 2005 from Rutgers, The State University of New Jersey; and the Master of Music Education degree from the University of Texas at San Antonio (UTSA, 2010).
Piano instructor, teaching in Northwest Houston, Jersey Village, Northwest Freeway. Instruction includes music history and music theory.

Piano lessons for ages 7 and up. Private and partner lessons available.
The voice is a powerful instrument that only gets better with practice.
Whether you're aiming for a career in music, preparing for a big audition, planning to enter a competition, or want to be the best singer in your church choir, voice lessons can help you become a great vocalist. All you need is a passion for music, a willingness to learn about your voice, and the discipline to practice.
Nine Muses Studio teaches a variety of styles, including classical, musical theater, jazz, and various contemporary genres like pop, r&b, country and rock. Located in South Austin, Nine Muses directs students on a path to becoming better musicians. Instruction includes vocal techniques, breath support, musicality, music theory, vocal pedagogy, sight reading, and performance techniques. Recitals throughout the year offer a chance for each student to practice performing for an audience and also provide an opportunity for family and friends to celebrate their progress.
Lessons at Nine Muses focus on the best techniques for each individual voice. Every singer is different and the curriculum for each student will take advantage of that. A well-trained singer should be able to sing any genre or style of music without discomfort. Learning healthy vocal techniques is the only way for a singer to perform various styles and continue singing for life.
I offer private piano lessons for preschoolers and up - beginners to advanced - as well as Mommy & Me and group music classes.
As for private lessons, I teach preschoolers (ages 3-5), school-age children, and adults - any level is welcome! I aim to instill a sense of joy and appreciation for music and the skills to become an independent learner right from the beginning.
I am also available as a coach and collaborative pianist - please contact me for any needs!
