I started playing piano at age 7. I sang in and accompanied my school choruses and church choir. I also played double bass, and played in many orchestras, student and professional. I majored in music at the University of Texas, Austin, graduating with a Bachelor of Music degree, majoring in piano performance and pedagogy. Honing my piano skills and expanding my musical expression are my lifelong discipline and passion.
I have studied with many fine piano teachers. I can even trace my piano lineage directly back to Beethoven! I am grateful to have learned so much from them all -- about piano technique, music analysis and interpretation, improvisation, and so much more. In addition, I learned the
importance of rapport, seeing and nurturing the strengths and gifts of the student. I learned each individual needs guidance in a style that works for them.
I will be happy and honored to help you in your piano journey.
