About

My greatest desire is that I will instill in each of my students the love I have for making music.  I consider it to be the language of the heart, and nothing equals the moment you realize you are hearing your thoughts and feelings in the music you are playing.  What a priceless gift to give yourself! I am a classically-trained pianist, and received music education in Paraguay, South America; and at Southwestern Assemblies of God University, Waxahachie, TX.  I have also excelled at playing many styles by ear.  I am fortunate to also love teaching, which allows me the incredible privilege of sharing my musical knowledge and my love for playing with anyone who wants to join me on this amazing journey. I have more than 27 years of teaching piano--from numerous four-year-olds to an eighty-six-year-old student. In addition to teaching students to play by note, I enjoy teaching students to play by ear. Together, we will explore many different types of music--Easy-listening, Country, Southern Gospel, Black Gospel, Blues, Latin, Contemporary, Classical, etc. I am qualified to teach piano by note from beginner (all ages) through early advanced.   By ear, I am qualified to teach beginner through very advanced. I have written more than 200 songs (mostly contemporary Gospel), with numerous ones having been recorded by various artists. Several have been arranged and published for church choirs. Having lived in South America as a child, I am bilingual and qualified to give piano lessons in English or in Spanish. I would be honored to share my knowledge and love of music with you. Give yourself a priceless gift that will last a lifetime!
