I have been playing piano since I was 10 years old. I began playing in church when I was 12, and went on to accompany the adult choir, soloists and vocal ensembles, youth and children's services, and for weddings.

I graduated from Wright State University with a Bachelor of Music in Piano Performance with an emphasis in Piano Pedagogy. After graduation, I taught at the WSU Community Music Division, as well as at my home studio. I now teach at two locations - my home studio in Clearcreek Township and at McCutcheon Music in Centerville, OH.

I am married to Charles and have three children, who are all accomplished musicians.
