Through his parents dedication and sacrifice, he was able to embark on a lifelong journey of learning and appreciation for the art. Mr. Lopez went on to be a piano pedagogy major in college and became a professional pianist working for weddings, funerals, and churches.

 

Over the years, he was able to pick up several other instruments easily due to his solid piano foundation! Weather it's ukelele, guitar, bass, flute, penny whistle, recorder, or djembe, his lively and fun teaching style translates to all of the instruments he teaches!  

 

His goal as a teacher is to empower parents to provide a learning environment at home, and to empower students not only to learn the fundamentals of music. but to learn dedication, empathy, and the importance of using their skills to give back to others. ​
