I am a music educator, parent, and speaker and I have worked with thousands of parents and music teachers around the world to inspire kids to make music. Through my extensive research into the lives of musicians and 20+ years of teaching experience, I have discovered simple, practical ways for parents to raise kids who love music.
I am a classically trained pianist with music degrees from Stanford University and Smith College. I love giving workshops and speeches on how to increase motivation so that children will practice effectively and develop a lifelong love of music.
