I was lucky enough to receive lessons from a woman who had her Master's Degree in Piano Performance from BYU, and my teaching methods mirror hers. Read More

During the first few lessons with a student, I will get to know what musical styles they like and find music that they will enjoy playing on top of the music that I assign to them. Read More
