Two of my students were 1st place winners for the State of Tennessee & Two students came in 2nd Place in State. My students have won talent shows & have been Finalists in 'The Mid-South Fair Youth Talent Contest." My students have given of their time & talents to play solos in hospitals, nursing homes, for civic groups & churches. All of my music students are given the opportunity to play in recitals & participate in competitions should they wish to do so.

I now teach both Piano Lessons and Accordion Lessons to those living in Knoxville, TN and surrounding areas.
