About
I teach a more traditional method, with some modern ideas thrown in, strong in theory, scales; 25 years experience teaching. I help all my students discover the joy in learning piano.

I focus on being able to share the "hows" of learning piano, so that students can experience the joy of sharing their music with others.
I just love teaching!!
I also offer life coaching sessions, to help in areas such as addiction, depression, stress management, and changing old, limiting belief patterns into life sustaining, potential oriented paradigms.
I'm very passionate about helping others see that possibility is a reality that extends beyond what we currently may think. That potential is more about our willingness to see that the process is just as important as the goal.
I have first hand experience with overcoming four decades of debilitating depression, addiction, and completely unhealthy belief systems; which when I began to change, every area of my life improved.
It is my desire to share my journey with other struggling people who may not yet know how to begin their journey.
