About your music teacher

Hey, I'm Raine, I teach music production with a focus on creativity, clarity, and confidence. Whether you’re brand new to Logic Pro or a songwriter wanting to shape your own demos, I offer artist-first coaching that meets you where you are. I’ve worked with musicians from early studio days to national tours, across genres like rock, R&B, pop, hip-hop, and more. I’m especially passionate about helping beginners and women feel empowered, safe, and independent in the production space. I’ve vocal coached artists in-studio, solved issues other engineers missed, and earned trust from Grammy-winning pros for my ear. But most importantly—I care. I listen deeply, keep things real (never harsh), and help you build both skill and self-trust. Sessions are fully tailored to you and your goals. As an artist myself, I get it. Let’s make your ideas sound like you.

Music lessons at a glance

My approach to teaching music production is built on celebration, trust, and curiosity. I check in regularly with my students, not just about their technical progress but about how they're feeling—because the best music comes when you feel safe enough to push past your perceived limitations. My students open up with me easily, and that openness often leads to breakthrough moments, both creatively and personally. Nearly everyone I’ve worked with has told me I’m a natural teacher—and it’s clear I love it. I’m a total nerd about both the big picture and the fine details. Want to understand not just how to use EQ, but why it works the way it does? Or what compression really means? I’ve explained these concepts in a way that even my completely non-musical mom found fascinating—and understood. That said, feeling comes first. I’ll teach you how to trust your ears and your heart. Thinking is important—but overthinking can get in the way of making great music. I’m not here to produce your music for you. I’m here to help you become confident, independent, and inspired—someone who can take a raw idea and bring it to life without getting stuck. I organize notes and materials into a shared Google Drive folder after each lesson, so you always have a record of what we covered. In our first session, I typically walk you through how to route audio from your DAW into Google Meet or Zoom—because I know how annoying that tech setup can be when you’re just getting started. And finally—I don’t gatekeep. I’m plugged into the music industry and always on the hunt for great tools, plug-ins, and resources. If I find a free synth or a good deal on a plug-in, I’ll share it. I'm not here just to teach or to make money—I’m here to see you win.
