COACHING EXPERIENCE: I have experience coaching boys and girls ranging from 4-40 years old. I was a coach in San Francisco for an organization called SF Glens FC, and then I started coaching private lessons in Orange County after playing college soccer at BIOLA University. I also coached a girls Chealsea OC soccer club in Orange County Southern California in 2024. But my passion is being a private coach, which I have been for 5 years now. I love watching people progress quickly and seeing their confidence boost as a result of it. ATHLETIC HIGHLIGHTS: I played 4 years of collegiate soccer on scholarship.

I've been playing golf since I was 14, inspired by my great uncle, who was Arnold Palmer’s high school golf coach and remained friends with him throughout their lives. Currently, I hold a 2.4 handicap and was co-captain of the Latrobe, PA high school team. During college, I gave lessons to faculty and friends and participated in various amateur events, even though I didn’t compete for my college team. I love the game and find immense satisfaction in helping others enhance their enjoyment, whether they're just starting out or looking to refine their skills.

With a foundation in European conservatory training and ongoing studies in the United States, I approach both teaching and performance as deeply interconnected disciplines rooted in perseverance, empathy, and authenticity. Having completed the second level of the Romanian Pedagogy Modules, which qualify graduate students to teach at both pre-college and college levels, my pedagogy is guided by the example of my outstanding mentors: Angela Pascu, Daniel Goiti, Stefan Arnold, and Boris Slutsky. My approach views virtuosity as a powerful tool: never an end in itself, but a means to facilitate meaningful and honest expression. My experience as a soloist, chamber musician, accompanist, improviser, and conductor gives me a multifaceted approach to music and education. Aside from refining their understanding of those innermost, intuitive aspects of musical architecture, I aim to encourage students of all ages to engage critically with the score, develop informed interpretations, and cultivate artistic independence. By fostering resilience, intellectual curiosity, and self-awareness, I prepare my students not only for the demands of the profession but also for a lifelong, sustainable relationship with their art, grounded in purpose, reflection, and an unwavering respect for the power of music to connect across barriers.
