I have been teaching Carnatic Vocal Music for over 25 years, and music has been both my life’s work and greatest passion. I hold an M.A. in Music, along with a Teacher Training Diploma, and diplomas in Hindustani and Western Classical Music. This diverse background allows me to give my students a well-rounded musical education.

I have had the privilege of training students who have successfully passed government-recognized music exams, both in India and internationally. Many of my students are now performing artists, and seeing them carry forward the classical tradition is one of the most rewarding aspects of my teaching career.

I’ve also had the opportunity to perform in 10 to 12 countries, engaging with global audiences and learning about different cultural interpretations of Indian music. These experiences have greatly influenced my teaching and have broadened my perspective as a musician and educator.

One of the highlights of my career was composing a fusion piece with the Sinfonia Band, which was performed on international stages. This composition was featured in several newspapers for its unique blend of Indian classical and Western orchestral styles, proving that tradition and innovation can coexist beautifully.

I conduct online classes, and I prepare students for university-level certifications and formal music exams. I ensure that my students are trained thoroughly in both **practical performance and music theory.
