Fun Facts
I have a tremendous passion for songwriting. I have been writing music since I was very young and soon hope to find success as a professional songwriter.
About Me
I am a senior at the University of the District of Colombia with major in Jazz Studies and English. I have been on the Dean's list for 3 years and when I graduate, I hope to pursue a career as a songwriter and music journalist.
Experience
Since 2008, I have had experience teaching piano to students between the ages of 7-23 on a weekly basis. I have also been serving as a journalism intern for two separate radio and music organizations in the Metropolitan area. I hope to have many opportunities to help other students develop their innate skills now and in the future.
Approach
I believe that students not only need help developing skills but also they need to be able to identify why these skills may be useful to them in the future. Too often we are taught things in school without having any idea why they may be important to us as we enter into society. My approach with is to not only cover the fundamentals of the topic, but also to find encouraging and helpful ways to implement the information in everyday life.
