Hello! My name is PJ. I was born and raised in Central Florida, and I’ve spent the last 3 years in Central Iowa with my partner Libby, and our lovely and talented 4 year old daughter, Janie Rose. I have been a professional musician for almost 20 years, four of which I spent playing trumpet, guitar, bass, and singing in the US Marine Corp Band.

My teaching style is success-driven and is largely about giving creative opportunities. Celebrating my students' first time playing a song or learning their first chord is always exciting, as I understand the sometimes intimidating learning curve that music presents.

For my piano students, I always make sure that they have pianists to listen to all week so that they can be inspired and have an understanding of the history of the instrument. Read More
