Her students range from very young beginners to the elderly, with some being awarded in local festivals and competitions in VA.

Born and raised in the Philippines, Elaine is currently a doctoral candidate in Piano Performance, Pedagogy, and Literature at James Madison University in VA. As an avid researcher, she was invited to be a guest lecturer on different topics such as French Impressionism, American Impressionism, Chopin's Improvisatory Passages, and Performance Anxiety.
