University Practice RoomsPiano Venue in Austin, TX

For over 15 years, I've guided students from beginners to professionals, drawing on my experience as a professional pianist. My teaching emphasizes technique, musicality, and the sheer joy of playing, ensuring a fulfilling musical journey.

For over 20 years, I've cultivated a deep passion for sharing the art of piano. My approach blends basic understanding of musical chords and ability to read music with a focus on listening to music in new, effective ways. I enjoy helping students hear patterns in songs and chords which will speed up their learning process. I also fully understand each student learns in different ways, and each student is motivated to learn a new skill in different ways, and am able to adapt to each individual's unique set of skills. I've worked with several piano teachers over my lifetime and know which styles helped motivate me personally. My job is to determine how best to keep a student engaged and having fun with the process. I enjoy the Boogie Woogie Swing Piano genre and have found many young people can't wait to learn it once they hear it played. I believe anyone can learn to play piano and that once they understand the basics, they will have a lifetime of enjoyment and special hobby that takes them away from life's daily stressors and helps to reduce screen time.
