FAQs
What is your typical process for working with a new student?
We evaluate previous musical experience and decide on a method to improve their skills. Personal interests are also taken into account.
What education and/or training do you have that relates to your work?
I have been playing piano, organ, and singing for over 40 years in churches, schools and community theater shows. My music education includes private lessons and master classes at Northwestern University and Chicago City College. In addition, I was a staff accompanist at Concordia College, Moorhead, MN and traveled throughout Midwest with school-sponsored vocal ensembles.
