I was born in St. Petersburg, Russia and moved to the USA in March 2000. I am an American citizen from July 2006.

I have over twenty years of experience in music education from outstanding Russian music schools in: performing, education, and music history and theory. I have an extensive experience in teaching music skills, music history, voice and piano.

I started my music education at age four and during the study and teaching experience created a lot of my own methods and techniques, which helping my students to progress and learn their material faster.

I am not only an accomplished pianist and solo voice performer, but have a major in music history-theory and music composition. As a part of my Master's I studied psychology and did a lot of research study in this subject. As a volunteer Christian consular, I worked with the homeless shelter in Galesburg, IL, helping many women to leave an abusive relationship, (Summer 2006). Psychology real helps me in my teaching profession to find a great communication and contact with my students.

I still perform many solo recitals in IL and out of state as a donation for different churches and Ministry. I have recorded a couple of the music CDs with my original composition.
