I have been a music professional for over forty years. My musical background includes experience as a performing cellist, vocalist, church music director, piano teacher, and an arranger-composer. For 15 years, I performed as a cellist, in a piano trio, and in musical theatre and oratorio orchestras. I was also a church pianist, music director, and piano teacher for 20 years, teaching 15-20 piano and cello students per week. However, I currently focus primarily on the cello.
