About Me
I have over 14 years experience teaching piano and voice to children, teens, and adults locally in the Phoenix, Arizona valley at two studio locations:
I use award-winning music technology to accelerate the learning process. This provides an interactive experience and makes learning the piano fun and easy. Expect to learn up to 4 times faster than with books alone.
I also have a recording of solo piano music that's available on Amazon, iTunes, Apple Music, Spotify and other online services.
