After almost 20 years, I’m turning the page and retiring from piano teaching. It feels good to know that I have always tried to prioritize making music joyful, and practicing student-centered teaching. Of course the best part of teaching is what the students have taught me. I am a far better person for asking every student once a week, “What does the music require of you?”

While I will not necessarily be retiring from gainful employment, I’m closing the teaching studio. I will continue to play of course — and enjoy spending time with my sweetie, our pup, and our families and friends!

THANK YOU to all the students, families, friends, and loved ones that have helped me do this! We will see you on the bike trails, the cross country ski trails, and at Butter Bakery Cafe!!!!
