I can't find a decent piano part for the song I want to sing or play. Can you help?

I can help you to either find an existing copy of sheet music for your song, or I can write one for you based on a recording. Contact me for details and pricing.

We would like piano music at our reception, but organ music for the ceremony. Do you also play the organ?

While my primary instrument is the piano, I did study pipe organ for 4 semesters during my undergraduate training. Contact me so we can discuss your needs.

Who do you teach piano lessons to?

I specialize in adult students. Whether you are completely new to the piano, or if you have played before, I will work with you to find an approach that works for you.
