My brother manufactured pianos in
the 1960's and 1970's. I worked there
as chipped and tuned one piano a day
when I was 14.
After getting my degree in Music
Education and K-12 Teaching Certificate
in 1982 from Campbell University BME,
I taught for Wake County as a substitute
teacher for 3 years. I taught piano lessons as
well.
in 1985 I got my degree in piano
tuning and repair for Central Piedmont
Community College and studied under
Clayton Harmon who was inducted into
the Piano Techicians Guild. In 1987
I became an RPT and scored 100% on pitch
during my exam.
I then worked for the North Raleigh
Hilton as a pianist for 5 years for Banquet
and holiday events.
I have tuned for Wake Co Schools
for many years as an independent contractor
and was worked under contract for 3 years
