Hello

I've been a music lover for as long as I can remember, going back to my days as a toddler.  I started taking piano lessons when I was six years old and continued through high school, enjoying performing and competing all the while.  In college I earned my bachelor of music in piano performance, then opened my own piano studio.  Besides teaching private students, I taught music classes in schools and wrote music curriculum.  

​

I'm now a mom of three adult children, all of whom have grown into music lovers themselves.  They've each found their own individual path in music, but all three perform, compose, and arrange their own work.  One has chosen music performance as a profession.  I've certainly found music to be a life-giving thing for me personally, but enjoying music together with my family has truly been one of my greatest pleasuress.

​

I am also a history lover!  Combing these two interests to create MusicIQ has brough me so much joy.  Now, I am thrilled to share all of this with you!
