Composition Lessons

Cultivate your innate creativity with a dedicated, expert mentor.

I work with composers at all stages, whether you’re just developing your creative voice, honing your craft, or preparing for the next professional stage.

As a teacher, I believe that every human being is innately creative. I help students develop a clear path from creative potential to artistic accomplishment through expert guidance in notation, instrumentation, and the artistic process.

Who I teach:

  • young composers exploring their creative expression
  • students preparing portfolios for college, graduate school, or festivals
  • adults returning to music or rediscovering their creative selves

What does a lesson look like?

Depending on your interests, we might examine a work-in-progress, discuss repertoire together, explore strategies for working through creative blocks, or do a deep dive into technical skills like instrumentation, pacing, motivic development, or notation. Each lesson moves you forward on your creative journey, fueling productive independent work between sessions.
