Hello, I am a music lover and piano technician based in southern Illinois. The inner workings of instruments have always fascinated me. So much so that I decided to make a career out of it.
Whether you have a piano, harpsichord, or maybe even something else entirely, I’m committed to getting your instrument to sound and play the best that it can.

Technician
Working with pianos is a passion as well as a career. I learned the ropes of the trade as an apprentice under Dr. AJ Bernal at Southern Illinois University. There I developed many of the skills I took with me in my professional career, such as piano and harpsichord repair, regulation, and fine-tuning.
Luthier
In addition to tuning and maintaining instruments, I also build them as well. I particularly like to find new ways to create instruments that break away from tradition. My creations include guitars, basses, mandolins, and even some amplifiers and microphones. You can see some of my instruments on my Instagram and YouTube page.
Musician
I like to involve myself with music in every little way I can. Whether that is playing with a symphony orchestra or rock band, I love to play music with others. I am currently the guitarist for the jazz fusion/funk band “Ecotone” based in southern Illinois. Maybe I’ll see you at a show some day!
Composer
I don’t just play music, I enjoy writing it too. My compositions have been featured in state competitions such as ILMEA, and I’ve even written music for various films and the musical "Cupcake with Blue Frosting", which was premiered in Los Angeles in 2023.
