A Teacher Who Leads by Example

At 88 Keys Music Academy, we believe that great music teachers are more than instructors — they are working artists who bring real-world passion and experience into every lesson. Citlali embodies that philosophy every day.

Her journey toward a Master of Music degree reflects the same commitment to growth, excellence, and love of music that she brings to her students here in the San Gabriel Valley. Watching her pursue her own artistic goals is a reminder of why music education matters — and an inspiration to every student she teaches.

Congratulations, Citlali!
