I was born in Whitefish, MT. I began playing the piano at age 6, taking lessons for 9 years from three different classical teachers. I graduated from the University of Montana with a degree in economics and history. I also studied music theory and composition. I play mostly popular music, rock, soul, motown. I once knew a country song but I’ve forgotten it.
