Here are a few performances of my playing and personal projects I continue to build upon. From playing recitals of classical repertoire, to composing, using classical music for relaxation, and finding other creatives to work with, I love how music is another way to tell stories. I want my students (and audiences) to be inspired to create.

I'm also a Musician on the Insight Timer Meditation app. Here I've uploaded some classical piano music as well as original compositions to spread the calming, healing power music. I'm grateful to be in the company of other artists, speakers, and teachers where this application has over 55,000 free guided meditations, prayers, music, and talks on topics ranging from calming anxiety, helping self-confidence, to ways to fall asleep easier. My profile and tracks can be found here.

collaboration

What makes piano a great instrument to learn? You can play great music by yourself, sing and play your heart out, or play a 4 hand duet with a friend or family member, join the jazz band, or learn just enough to play keys in your own garage band!

Composing Original Character Themes
Trials of the Innermost: The Etherea Cycle: Book One

In collaboration with co-authors Jonathan Fuller & Kristina Kelly, I've enjoyed composing themes for characters from their debut Sci-Fi/Fantasy book series, The Etherea Cycle. Listen to Idrilia's theme-what kind of personality do you think she has? Click on the the slideshow to order your copy and find out! 
Here's a blog post about the musical elements in their novel.
