Author bio

I am an international competition winning concert pianist and piano teacher. I have a weekly program on WAIF Radio in Cincinnati, where I discuss individual empowerment, community involvement and play great music. I became a Trustee there in 2019. I have been employed over ten years in the Church Music field, and have appeared in about 1000 church services as Organist, Conductor, Singer. I have performed 3 times at Carnegie Hall and have played with orchestras and many other venues. I studied play writing with Edward Albee and wrote plays for two years, and then I had nothing more to say. I have been published in Clavier Companion (now called Piano Magazine) Clavier, Catholic Telegraph, Common Cause Magazine, and a few others here and there. I have written several songs and one multi-movement work for two pianos. I am married, with two sons, a daughter, two grandchildren and a cat.
