I have been playing music since I was three years old. I earned a bachelor's degree in music from Oakland University and have been teaching for over 30 years. While living in New York City I worked as a commercial composer and was selected by the Songwriters Hall of Fame to be a part of their Songwriters Showcase. I have written and recorded four commercially released albums and have performed on multiple releases by other artists. Throughout my music career I have always enjoyed sharing my knowledge and helping others find joy and satisfaction through music.

I am a strong believer that everyone benefits from learning and experiencing music as a performer in addition to experiencing it as a listener. While encouraging my students to achieve at their highest level, I like to keep my lessons fun for all ages, especially for my younger students. I will work with parents to find the balance you desire that is best for your individual child. My lessons are built on a foundation of traditional studies where students learn to play, read music, and follow chord charts, as well as working towards playing free from reading music. For students that are interested, I can help them create their own music either using the latest technology or starting simple with just a single instrument. I also enjoy helping students learn to improvise if they choose. Whether you or your child are a beginner or a more advanced student needing guidance, let's explore music together!
