It was important that I taught from application. I spent my professional life working with professional groups, I performed classical piano concerts regionally, and I worked with church choirs and praise teams.

I attempted to do the same in all my experiences with students. Read More

Behind every good concert artist is a fabulous music educator.

In France, I studied with world famous artists and pedagogues, earning a teaching legacy that is only five piano professors away from Ludwig van Beethoven. Read More
