About this pro
25+ years of giving the joy of music to all ages. Classical, pop, technique and theory in a delightful setting. Piano and guitar are offered.
I love watching students embrace what they are learning and use it to create and enjoy the music they love!
After teaching 25+ years, there is still never a dull moment! I studied under an incredible teacher with her Doctorate from Juilliard, a world-renowned organist, and pedagogy from the President of Ohio Music Teacher's Association.
Students have come who are ages 5 -83, and all have enjoyed the process and joy of learning to create music that is truly their own.

Our first lesson is spent getting to know each other, finding out the student's current musical skill level, and choosing just the right path ahead for the student.
What education and/or training do you have that relates to your work?
My initial training was private lessons from a Doctorate from Juilliard. I then studied at Northwestern University and from there studied Piano Pedagogy with the President of Ohio Music Teacher's Association.
