A note from us!

Today's musician is much different than they were 25 years ago. In this age, musicians need well-rounded skill sets, the ability to be flexible and adaptable and perform different types of work. Many musicians have a portfolio career that includes "non-music" jobs. Many more are looking at making a career shift or pivot after years in one industry. 

Whatever path you desire, we're here to help. And, let us introduce ourselves quickly! We are Ixi Chen, Dr. Tiffany Valvo and Nick Photinos. We're professional musicians with a wide breadth of experiences. Ixi is the 2nd clarinetist in the Cincinnati Symphony Orchestra, Tiffany is a marketing professor at SFCM and freelance clarinetist, and Nick Photinos is a Grammy Award-winning cellist.  After helping hundreds of students, we're here to help you figure out what your next step is and build a career in music you love.
