I started playing piano when I was 4 years old. Started lessons with a "family" friend but quickly outgrew her. Eventually I began studying at the Cleveland Music School Settlement.
I began studying string bass and cello when I began middle school studying with Lawrence Angell, the principle Bassist from the Cleveland Orchestra.
I have performed in various professional orchestras and jazz/rock bands throughout the midwest and South America.
In college I had a double major in piano and string bass, with a minor in music theory and composition.
My teaching experience encompasses over 30 years both privately and classroom.
