About Me

Music has enriched my life in such a beautiful way that I find true joy in sharing my skill and knowledge with others. Teaching one-on-one has provided me with the opportunity to provide each of my students with a personal and individualized program. I have a degree in education from Indiana State University. I have been playing the piano for 37 years. I enjoy playing for church, weddings and other events. I teach from my home on Maxwell AFB, AL. I live just across from the Youth Center. We are a military family with six children. I have been homeschooling for many years and I am currently homeschooling three of our daughters. The church we attended was Mid-City Baptist in Louisiana and I greatly enjoyed playing the piano for this wonderful church. We are currently looking for a new church home in the Montgomery area. I look forward to serving in the music ministry wherever the Lord directs our family. I also play classical, contemporary Christian and secular music.

My Musical Education Background

I have a degree in Elementary Education from Indiana State University. Although I do not hold a degree in music, I have had many music classes throughout my high school and college years. I am also an active pianist in my church. As we are military, I have had many opportunities to play in various churches. (learning a great deal from each experience) I have taught in three public school systems and taught my own children at home throughout the years. This has strengthened my teaching abilities which have enriched my piano teaching capabilities. Amongst all of the subjects I have taught, piano is my favorite.

My Certifications and Awards

I have never had the inclination to seek certifications and awards. I admire people who do and think it wonderful. My focus on music has always been to use it to honor and glorify the Lord Jesus Christ. This has been my greatest honor and desire.....to use my talents to serve HIM. My experience as a teacher has greatly helped in my instructing of the piano. I love to share what I have learned over the years with others.

My Musical Influences

I grew up in a musical family. My two favorite teachers are my Aunt Carole and my Aunt Linda. I was blessed to be under their piano instruction while growing up.

Wonderful teacher! Our three kids took lessons from her and kids had a great time learning. Sad that she is leaving Montgomery.
