Greetings, Austin!
Some of my earliest memories involve playing at the keyboard of my grandfather’s old upright piano, long before I knew the notes had names. I finally began lessons at the age of 5, fell in love with the instrument, and continued studying the piano into college.
Since then I have provided music for weddings, religious celebrations, professional business gatherings, dinner parties, and more. I’ve also accompanied scores of vocalists and instrumentalists for recitals, concerts, and musical productions.
Through my piano practice I have learned much more than just how to write and play music. More importantly, I have learned patience, discipline, attention to detail, collaboration, focus, and expression. In teaching piano I hope to both endow students with the necessary skills to play as well as to inspire them to explore sound in innovative ways.
