My name is Ashley Shahbazi, I offer a patient and comfortable environment for students to thrive while they learn valuable skills handed down from my years of experience and conservatory education. As I am a lifelong student and performer, I provide a unique student-teacher relationship to bring the best out of each student through a love and appreciation for the craft. I enjoy seeing my students make strides in their abilities while also developing a love for the instrument.
