I fell in love with the piano almost overnight. I began to play as a young adult and soon the piano became a passion for me. To make up for a late start, I practiced 10 or more hours a day. My frenetic practice routines eventually led me to the school of music at The Ohio State University. After completing my music degree at OSU, the world of the piano was further opened up for me at the North Bennett Street School in Boston.
At NBSS I was completely immersed in the piano all day every day, and surrounded by skilled and devoted craftspeople who are dedicated to teaching the trade. I have been performing high quality piano work since 1999, and in that time I have had the opportunity to do concert-level work for many fine pianists and at great venues such as:
The Aspen Music Festival
University of Colorado
Boulder Philharmonic
Ohio Wesleyan University
Denison University
Central Ohio Symphony
Columbus Symphony Pops
Churches and Clients’ Homes
My extensive concert -level experience with the Steinway piano enables me to provide my clients with beautiful and responsive instruments that inspire their creativity.
The Guild
The Piano Technicians Guild is a dedicated group of craftspeople committed to the art and craft of piano work. The cameraderie and learning enabled through association with such a talented group of individuals is energizing and inspiring. I am proud to be a member of the PTG as a Registered Piano Technician.
My Clients
I am on the road servicing pianos nearly every day. In homes, churches, studios, and concert venues, I work to keep my clients’ instruments on the path of beautiful music. I have the opportunity to collaborate with some outstanding musicians and all around interesting people. Their discrimination and good taste keep my work interesting and rewarding, and their good humor and spirit make my work days fun as well. It is an honor to be a part of the music community in central Ohio.
