Hey there!

From Keys to Mastery: My Journey to Becoming a Professional Pianist

I have over 20 years of piano experience, starting formal piano lessons at age 4, and continuing lessons for 15 years until I was 19. My love for piano began at a very young age. My mom never had to coerce me into practice like she did my other siblings. I loved learning songs that were over my level, especially ones that my older siblings couldn't play. I basked in the feeling of mastering a difficult piece. I quickly surpassed my "piano level", and never looked back.

Over the years, my dedication to consistent practice, embracing both strengths and weaknesses, and playing engaging music has fostered a deep passion and refined skill for the piano that continues to grow to this day. This passion has led me to develop a diverse musical repertoire--numberless pieces I've learned over thousands of hours of practice over the years.

These include works in Classical piano (including the eras of the Renaissance, Baroque, Romantic, & 20th/21st Century), Contemporary piano, New Age and Avant-Garde style, Pop-Rock music, Latin compositions, Musical Theatre and Film Score, Jazz Standards, Soul, Rhythm & Blues, Ragtime songs, Folk songs, Country and Western music, Gospel, and Liturgical. There really isn't any type of piano style that I haven't played or learned from! Browse my piano repertoire here, and listen to me perform some of my pieces here.

I have extensive experience in various musical settings, from playing for private events and weddings to performing at prestigious venues, fulfilling the position of a choral accompanists, participation in national piano solo competitions, leading a band as the keyboardist for a traveling show-choir, and being a church pianist and organist. In addition to my piano experiences, I studied the Organ under Dr. Valerie Harris for a year at BYU, where I learned a different type of complexity in playing an instrument. Currently, I'm a piano instructor at Volz Method Piano Academy, where I have loved teaching for the past year.
