I am a classically trained pianist (18+ years) with a Bachelor’s degree in music from the College of Saint Benedict (piano performance, minor in theology) and a Master’s in the Art of Teaching (MAT - PACE program, University of Portland). I have 12 years of experience as an accompanist in church and school settings (weddings, funerals, Mass, religious services) mostly Catholic, but some experience in other denominations. I can play the piano for your wedding, a funeral, any general church service, school programs, background piano for rehearsal dinners or receptions, etc. I am super flexible and adaptable to different venues and experiences, and look forward to working with you!

I am professional and flexible and open to new opportunities! I can play from piano scores/sheet music as well as from chords/lead sheets!
I worked as an accompanist with the St. John’s Boys’ Choir and St. John’s Campus Ministry. Most recently, I taught as a general music teacher (K-8) at a Catholic school in Seattle. Along with teaching general music, I accompanied for student Masses, planned and directed school programs, directed the Junior High Choir, and taught piano club (group piano lessons). I have some training and experience with voice and organ as well.
I prefer if a piano is provided, but have a keyboard I can travel with if needed (depending on event size and location).
I have an arsenal of Baroque/Classical/Romantic/Modern music that I can pull out to play for an event depending on the setting and environment that you would like to create! I accept requests and can provide suggestions!
