piano & beyond

when i was growing up i didn't really know why i took lessons other than to simply play songs because i was told to. as i kept on learning i started to enjoy playing more and more until i thought, "if i really enjoy piano this much, how can i do something music related for a job?"

years later i'm doing just that on 3 different levels...

  • my full-time job as a worship leader in the church enables me to use my talents in music, not only playing and singing on the weekend but also during the week as i prepare the music we're going to play. this is a very brief overview of what this job entails.
  • as a piano teacher which is an avenue to teach others and help me stay sharp on my own musical knowledge and helps me in all other areas of music. it is enjoyable to see students develop and grow as I teach them.
  • my greatest passion of all is being a recording artist, here i write, record and perform my songs. This right now is the least of the above two but is picking up momentum, soon i hope to be able to do this full-time which will be awesome.
so i write about these 3 aspects of piano that i would have never dreamed of being able to do way back when i was 10 years old. right now it may seems as if all we do is learn song after song but it's all part of learning and who knows what the future may hold.
