Fun Facts
I grew up in southern California and played golf everyday after school. I am also an incredibly musical person and I think about music 24/7. I compose orchestral, electronic, and jazz music and I love performing at weddings, bars, and various social events. I also ski whenever I get the chance and love to meditate.
About Me
I am a music composition and performance major at Lewis and Clark College. I have been on the deans list every semester in addition to being a member of four musical ensembles and a music teacher and performer outside of school. I plan to teach for a year or two and then pursue a Masters of Music Education.
Experience
In addition to being highly involved in the music department at Lewis and Clark College, I am an honors student in all subjects and teach music to thirteen different elementary schools in the Portland area. I was the T/A of the electronic music department at Lewis and Clark, and an appraised new student orientation leader. I strike up conversations in Chinese wherever I go, and I am especially talented in math and music theory.
Approach
Learning should be fun, and the more engaged a student is the more likely they are to benefit from the lesson. In high school I became easily bored in class and my mind wandered as I couldn't stay focused. After my mom found me tutor that I loved working with, I made significant progress because he made learning fun. My goal is to make my students want to learn, and I love to help students generate their own strategies and problem solving skills.
