"Playing the cello was the first decision I made as a child, the moment I innocently started saying that
I wanted to play 'THE BIG VIOLIN'."
Since then, music has been an integral part of my life journey.
I have discovered a lot by playing in symphonic orchestras as well as through chamber music.
Traveling has also given me the opportunity to meet top musicians of the instrument to which
I dedicate my entire life."

My philosophy
Can't decide between a high or low pitched instrument?
-Play them all with
the cello!
Working individually with my students means working on creating a unique and beautiful bond between student and teacher, and I find that very inspiring. Every student is unique, and by teaching one-on-one, I can adapt my guidance to the needs of the student. That is why I find the learning process of the student, as well as my involvement in it, very fascinating. For me, there is no greater enrichment than seeing how a student, with the music and the sound of the cello, changes and channels his emotions through it.
The power of music is incredibly strong!
