What makes you different than other Pianists? My performance experiences includes my debut at Carnegie Hall 9 years ago at age 20. Also unlike most musicians who take a 15-minute break each hour, I usually only take a 7 to 10-minute break every 90 minutes or so, giving you and your guests much more music during your event. Also, I can hold a conversation while I'm playing the piano and not skip a note or beat. This makes for a more friendly experience between me, my music and your guests and comes in handy when a guest has a song request.

What is your favorite thing about being a Pianist? Seeing the joy and smiles of your guests as they listen to my music at your event. It's always a great honor to be selected by a client to be of service to them in helping make their special event a huge success by providing extraordinary, memorable and fun music. It's fun consulting with a client in the planning before the event to ensure I am providing them with the right selection of music that they and their guests will enjoy. I love the diversity of my clients and their varied events!
