TEACHER BIOGRAPHY
I started accompanying my school Choir in 8th grade and continued through my
12th grade year. During that time, and to the present, I have been a Church
pianist, organist, keyboard player and vocal soloist. I have accompanied vocal
soloists and ensembles, played for weeings and funerals, directed adult Church
Choirs, childrens Choirs and musical dramas and played with orchestras.
I have been a piano teacher for 20 years now, and love to see children and adultrs enriching their lives through music. Playing the piano is a wonderful way to do this. God created many wonderful things to enjoy, music being one that I am eternally grateful for.
"Together we can make beautiful music!"
