About

Besides being a piano instructor and am also a professional piano player. As a professional pianist I am introduced to new music every week in all styles. This keeps me up to date with what ever music my students wish to learn.

My goal is to bring out the musician in each student. Everyone is musical. I work with them on being musical, singing and understanding the piece they are working on so that at every lesson they pick up something new.

I love seeing my students play and perform pieces they never dreamed that they could attempt a few months earlier. I want to give them the give to be able to have music be a part of their life's journey.

    Determination to find what you, the student wanted to achieve, a time line to do so, type of music preferred, pleasant, patient, and able to train without feeling intimidated. Great guy for all ages I would believe.

    I work with students of all ages and abilities.  My younges student was not even 4 years old when she started.  I also teach adults and work with many young men and women ages 10-18.  I offer a special program to adult students who either want to relearn the piano or are first timers looking the play popular songs.
