About Ian
I am passionate about creating complete musicians, strong at performing, composing, arranging, and analyzing. I am your go-to for piano, composition, arranging, and theory online, in your home, or at my place! I look forward to serving you!
My father has been a teacher for over 20 years, and my mother was a teacher for 10. Thus, I grew up surrounded by teachers who love to teach, and I think I inhereted that same love to share knowledge.
D. M. in Composition (with an unofficial minor in Theory) from Florida State University
M. M. in Composition/Theory (with an unofficial minor in Piano) from Texas Christian University
B. M. in Composition (with an unofficial minor in Piano) from Marylhurst university

It is important that I get to know them and they get to know me, so that they realize I am a human just like them. I then want to help them with what they want to learn, and once I understand their language, I begin to provide more thorough suggestions.
All, from amateurs to emerging artists, from age 4 to 40s, Classical to Pop, graduate and undergraduate, and everything in between.
I advise every student to think about the deeper meaning behind their creative lives and inspirations. What is music? What makes music? What gives music vitality? Why does music matter?
One of my graduate composition students whom I have taught over the past year has gone from writing fairly standard musical tunes to creating post-tonal works of impressive stature. He is also a poet. The other day to begin our lesson, he read a poem reflective of the times and inspired by my teaching and mentorship, and presented an impressive miniature showing tremendous maturity and control over pitch and harmony.
A few things worth thinking about before reaching out
I think - with the exception of incredibly personal issues - students should be free to share their creative concerns and related issues with teachers. A good teacher is one who can keep confidential information confidential, and always encourage the student in the best possible way in answering any question.
