Hello! I'm Adriel, a dedicated professional with a strong background in music. I worked as a music teacher in the public school system for 5+ years, and I have been mentoring students on music since 2009. I am a jazz musician who has composed several original tunes which I performed with my Jazz Combo. As a music teacher, I also composed simple melodies for my students and arranged music to fit their needs. As a musician, I have written several songs where I sing melodies while accompanying myself with chords on the electric bass. I am trained in music theory and aural skills, and I can help anyone learn to develop their own melodies to fit their lyrics and enable them to begin songwriting!
