I am a composer, performer, and producer of progressive acoustic and electroacoustic music. My music is characterized by disjunct, interlocking rhythms; extended harmonies and angular melodies; glitch and soundscape textures; and gradual, additive development. I am a vigorous advocate for musical pluralism and draw inspiration from a smattering of musical influences, including indie and alternative rock, jazz, progressive metal, hip-hop, and EDM.

An avid performer of contemporary music, I compose for and play piano in the brain-funk band Emergency Stopping Only.

For me as a teacher, it is vital to help instill in my students a love for all sorts of music. I am an exceptionally patient teacher, and I aim to be encouraging at all times. It is extremely important to me that my students feel supported and empowered to achieve their highest musical aspirations.

Classical music is the foundation for everything else!

I have been teaching piano for over 40 years, full-time for the past 15. Besides the actual repertoire, technique and theory are always included in my lessons because they are essential. Sight reading and ear training are also included in some lessons.

I stress accuracy in playing and attention to details! I also teach my students HOW to practice. Slow, accurate practice is the answer. Practicing takes patience!

Please note: Home lessons must be at a location that I can get to easily with public transportation. I do not have a car.

I am a classically trained pianist with five completed degrees in Piano Performance from Germany and the US.
