I am classically trained as a pianist and vocalist with a performance degree and a long professional history teaching and performing. Music is my passion and I love sharing it with others.
Besides teaching piano lessons, guitar lessons and voice lessons, I also work collaboratively with students who are, or wish to be, songwriters. Working together, I help them write, refine and record their own music.
As a songwriter, I've got lots of experience both live and in the studio. I've recorded 4 full length CD's of my own material as well as numerous demos, and performed live at events such as South by Southwest, Bumbershoot, and many other great venues in Seattle, Portland, LA, New York, Chicago and London, where I lived until 2008 when I relocated back to my hometown of Seattle.
I'm always involved in performing music, and am currently the vocalist/instrumentalist/songwriter for the Seattle band:
