About Lucy


Bio

I’m a pianist and composer who is passionate about finding how music can make your life better. I believe in enough structure to be accountable, but also to have freedom to experiment and try new things in music. There is so much to learn outside of what is on the page, and I help students who have been previously been told that they “didn’t have enough talent” to find their strengths and weaknesses and develop from that. The curriculum is adjustable and takes into account what you want to...

I’m a pianist and composer who is passionate about finding how music can make your life better. I believe in enough structure to be accountable, but also to have freedom to experiment and try new things in music. There is so much to learn outside of what is on the page, and I help students who have been previously been told that they “didn’t have enough talent” to find their strengths and weaknesses and develop from that. The curriculum is adjustable and takes into account what you want to learn. It is hard work, but it is worth it!

Hello! During this challenging time, I am proud to say that my students have found music increasingly helpful in their lives- I work with later beginners and adult students to foster their creativity and use music as an outlet for stress. The benefits of music are endless, and my goal as a teacher is to bring music into your life in a positive way, no matter your skill level, your age, and your schedule. If there is a longterm commitment, your relationship and ability will only grow!

Contact me for a discounted trial lesson, and we can see if a longterm commitment can be made.

Looking forward to hearing from you!
