About
I have been teaching piano for over 25 years, and am a Nationally Certified Teacher of Music (NCTM) through the Music Teachers National Association. I have a Bachelors and Masters Degree from Brigham Young University, Provo. I believe that a well-rounded piano education includes a strong technical foundation, performance opportunities such as recitals and festival participation, keyboard theory and knowledge of the different musical periods and their appropriate styles. If you are passionate about the piano, I’d love to hear you! Currently accepting home school students. In-person lessons are preferred, although I am offering Zoom lessons during Covid.

Frequently asked questions
Do you have a standard pricing system for your lessons? If so, please share the details here.
Through the school year, I charge a monthly flat fee, regardless of the number of lessons. This makes budgeting much easier for everyone involved! For the summer, I move to weekly rates, as it is a much more flexible season.
What types of students have you worked with?
I love working with students of all ages and stages! It is so wonderful to see the development of strong technique and musical understanding; my goal is for every student to have the ability to create beautiful, nuanced performances, not just read notes on a page!
What questions should students think through before talking to teachers about their needs?
Before your interview with me, consider your own personal goals on the piano (or organ). Why are you studying piano? What about it interests you? What kind of music do you prefer to play? Are you willing to study technique, theory, and sight reading? Are you ready to work hard to prepare for festivals and/or yearly piano exams? It is important for teachers to teach to your needs, and tailor lessons to fit you!
