I also studied symphonic band, musical theater, and jazz throughout high school while learning improvisational skills as a church pianist.

It is a pleasure for me to hear my students progress from their first steps as timid, first-time players to confident and more musically mature young musicians. My students participate in a monthly MDML recital and an annual music test organized by the MMTA. I believe performing for others is a good way for students to grow into their roles as musicians and to acquire a sense of accomplishment. Read More

The result has been that I have trained hundreds of children to have fun playing music well, plus four of my child students have become national acts. Read More
