Some of the many ensembles I have played for include the Tahoe Toccata Symphony Orchestra, the Reno Pops Orchestra, freelance musical theater orchestra pits, and various ensembles with UNR.

Music is my gift. I am blessed with a natural ability which I have dedicated my life to learn, cultivate and nurture. To share this through teaching is rewarding.

My introductory lesson is full of information to build a foundation on which further knowledge can stand. Read More

I suggest playing for ten minutes at one time working through each exercise for those ten minutes before taking a rest for 20 minutes. Then move to the next etude or scale.

This warm up is part of the first ten minutes of practice time. Read More

It was required that all non-piano stsudents must take 2 semesters of functional piano. I continued fulfilling this role from 1981-1985. In 1997 I began teaching private piano lessons to students in my school that had an interest in learning piano after school. I continued doing this until I began teaching piano in a private music school in 2005. Read More
