"As long as God is allowing me to get out there and perform, and people enjoy my music, I will keep on playing".

It was 1969, in Bloomington, Minnesota, when I started to learn the piano. My earliest memory was sitting at my Baldwin Acrosonic and being told to stay there until the buzzer rang. Fortunately, it wasn’t long before the tedious instruction took, and a lifelong passion was born. I
have been playing ever since!

Along the way I’ve added Composer and Arranger to my resume. Subsequently, I’ve been recognized as a “versatile pianist,” with genres including Classical, Contemporary, Pop and Jazz (…especially the beloved standards of the Golden Era). My experience includes solo piano engagements and accompaniment for vocalists, instrumentalists and ensembles. I also enjoy playing for weddings, special events, dinners, receptions, corporate engagements, theaters, and orchestras.

While some fans tell me they appreciate my “lyrical style,” saying it’s “that something special that sets her apart,” others describe “the way” I play, and liken it to me “singing with my fingers.” Regardless of how my fans express their love of my work, I am ever so grateful – for it is for them that I play, and I am so honored for their continued support. Currently, you can find me playing at Von Maur, in Eden Prairie, Minnesota, and at Senior Living Communities and Nursing Homes, where I love giving back to my community.
