I started playing piano at the age of 6 and have taken lessons progressively to advance my skills consistently.

After attending my first workshop there I completed and obtained a copyright for my first 2 original pieces - "Cruisin' with Chrome" and "Not a Care in the World". 5 more pieces will be submitted for a copyright request in late 2019.

My teaching style has been described as one that rewards hard work and dedication, but leaves room for experimentation and fun.

I started teaching private lessons on guitar and bass in the mid-1970's, after playing for about 10 years. If you want to learn to play, you have to practice.
