About Dean
Hi! I’m Dean—a pianist, songwriter, and music producer from Seattle, Washington. I’ve been playing piano professionally for over 13 years and was fortunate to further my musical studies at Berklee College of Music in Boston. I graduated Magna Cum Laude with a dual degree in Music Production & Engineering and Songwriting. During my time at Berklee, I had the privilege of studying production/engineering under esteemed professors such as Mark Wessel and Prince Charles Alexander, and songwriting under the likes of Pat Pattison and Rodney Alejandro.
After graduation, I moved to Los Angeles to continue pursuing my musical career and share my knowledge with people just like you! I have experience in a wide range of styles, including pop, R&B, jazz, and classical. Additionally, I’ve spent years working with keyboards and synthesizers, developing a specialty in them—so if that’s your interest, I’ve got you covered there too!
I’m incredibly passionate about music and teaching, and I’m genuinely excited to get to know you and help you on your musical journey!

The foundation of my lessons is centered entirely around you! Drawing on my years of songwriting expertise and my Berklee education (which typically costs $70,000 per semester), I’ll tailor every session to your specific needs. Whether you're new to chords entirely or exploring the modes of harmonic minor, I’ll guide you every step of the way to unlock the potential you didn’t know you had!
I don’t believe in a one-size-fits-all approach to teaching. Instead, I adapt my methods to match what you know and how you learn, ensuring you receive the best possible guidance. Need a structured lesson plan to stay on track? I’ve got you covered! Prefer a more flexible approach while still receiving a world-class education? I’m here for that, too! Either way, you’ll gain a deep understanding of melody, harmony, and theory like never before.
I’m experienced in a wide range of styles and will meet you wherever you are in your musical journey. Whether you’re into Slayer or Santana, it’s all music to my ears.
I offer lessons both online and in person in the Los Angeles area. Feel free to reach out with any questions—I can’t wait to work with you! :)

Dean has an immense, infectious passion for music and truly real talent. I’m always impressed by everything he creates- and I am confident he can pass all of this onto you as a mentor.
Dean is an excellent piano teacher because he is both great at playing piano and great at passing along his knowledge. He is always patient and encouraging, and his lessons are always an engaging and supportive experience.
Since Dean has been playing piano for over a decade and has studied at one of the most notable colleges for music, there’s no doubt he’s the most fantastic teacher for those looking to learn.
