Instruments: Piano

Hello! My name is Michelle and I have been playing the piano for 14 years. I started at a small studio like most children, just out of curiosity as to what kind of interests I could have. I ended up loving playing and performing the piano and gradually developed my skill over time, winning numerous awards and using my skills to participate in church choir and many other volunteer opportunities. I have performed at Carnegie Hall in New York City and the Leith Symington Griswold Hall at Johns Hopkins University. Read More

Older students I begin with John Thompson method books or Bastien method books, theory books, and exercises. Read More

Instruments: Piano Voice

I had no idea that years later as an adult I would be "paying it forward". Read More
