About me

If you already love your piano, I want to help you give it the care it deserves. If you have not yet found an instrument that truly inspires you, I can help you improve your current piano or guide you toward one that you will love for years to come.

Registered Piano Technician

For the past 17 years, I have dedicated my career to the art and craft of piano technology, helping pianists and piano owners get the very best from their instruments. I enjoy working closely with clients to ensure their instrument performs, sounds, and looks its best.

I’ve been a member of the Piano Technicians Guild (PTG) since 2009, President of the Twin Cities PTG Chapter 2023-2026. I am actively involved in the professional community and continually refine my expertise and expand the level of service I provide to my clients. Over the last year I have expanded my services to include piano finish touch-up and repair, specializing in both lacquer and polyester finishes.

My goal is simple: if you already love your piano, I want to help you give it the care it deserves. If you have not yet found an instrument that truly inspires you, I can help you improve your current piano or guide you toward one that you will love for years to come.

At the heart of it all is the joy of music. The piano is my instrument of choice and my life's passion. Let me help you get the very best from yours.
