"I was a complete beginner when I first met Elijah 3 months ago. Very quickly he was able to assist me with getting the right equipment and oriented me with ease. Coach Elijah breaks down all the components of the game and is patient yet firm in his approach. He also has great supplemental equipment to fast-track training ground strokes, footwork, etc. He helped me develop a one-handed backhand that actually has “fire power” and I feel much more confident going to the tennis court.

Creating a joyful learning experience is my mantra. As a dedicated music educator, I cultivate a relaxed environment where making mistakes is part of the journey, and experimentation is encouraged. Students should leave each session feeling confident in themselves and their abilities. My educational journey, from studying Bel Canto operatic singing at Queensborough Community College to exploring diverse styles at Berklee College of Music, has equipped me to offer students a comprehensive foundation to sing any song in any style. Join me in discovering the joy of singing while building a solid musical skill set that lasts a lifetime. For more examples of my singing and to get to know me more, feel free to listen to my music and hear me on social media.
