I've been teaching music with a non-profit organization in The Bay Area for the past 5 years and have been producing and making music professionally for over 12 years. I have experience teaching in grades 1-12 and have taught in many schools and youth outreach centers across the Bay Area including San Francisco, Oakland, and Berkeley. I also have both a Master of Science in Digital Media from USC and a BA in Digital Media Studies from Claremont McKenna College. As a producer, I've contracted and worked with Google and YouTube numerous times to create music for their YouTube Audio Library, amassed over 8 million streams across various platforms and 27K subscribers on YouTube, collaborated with platinum producers, and worked with many artists all over the world. I've also recently had my music requested to be in the new season of a popular Netflix series.
Learners will need either a pair of headphones or speakers to hear what's being taught in the lessons, and to participate in the exercises.

The class will be using a free-to-use COPPA-compliant tool used to create digital music called Soundtrap. Students are encouraged to create a free account at Soundtrap.com but are not required to. It will be used for demonstrational purposes, but students are more than welcome to participate using Soundtrap and practice the lessons from the workshop. From The Soundtrap FAQ webpage: Q: Is Soundtrap for Education compliant with the Children’s Online Privacy Protection Act (COPPA)? A: We take children’s safety on the web very seriously. By default, Soundtrap for Education is designed to comply with COPPA, GDPR, and FERPA standards and supports CIPA certification. All users are initially placed in a safe, protected environment where they can collaborate. Their profiles are not visible to the outside world and they cannot contact or be contacted by people outside of their group. A minimal profile allows only for the first name and last name to be stored in the profile. No profile pictures, tags, locations, or descriptions are stored.
It is suggested that students create a free Soundtrap.com account prior to the workshop.
