Educator, Performer & Entrepreneur
A Midwest-based pianist with a Master of Music in performance and teaching, I bring a versatile repertoire and polished artistry to create unforgettable musical experiences – In the studio and on the stage.
About Me
Reach
As a performer, the stage has taken me everywhere from choral and operatic productions in an enormous hall, to intimate chamber ensembles in a living room. I enjoy the interchange between solo and collaborative performance.
As a private instructor with 10+ years experience , I've helped 100+ musicians take their skills to the next level. Through inspiring confident performance, I assist beginners, amateurs, and young professionals in their musical pursuits.
Backstory
I had a humble beginning, receiving my first piano lesson from a family friend. I kept practicing and entered competitions, which led to my debut performance with the SE Iowa Symphony Orchestra. That’s one of the reasons why I'm fascinated with the piano - One positive experience with music can result in a life-long aspiration.
Outlook
People often wonder what draws me to a career in music. Beyond passion, it’s the reward of positive human connection. More importantly, the belief that the arts inspire better lives for people. It’s about growing more into the person I want to become.
