Working Pianist with 15 years of experience in classical, jazz, songwriting, and music theory. I focus on well-rounded practicing schedules that maximize enjoyment and growth of my students.

I have had the privilege of playing alongside Ian for many years in our university’s top jazz orchestra, wind symphony, and in local folk groups. Ian is an exceptionally skilled pianist, trained in both classical and jazz styles, with a deep knowledge of his craft and a genuine dedication to music.
Ian’s collaborative spirit makes him a joy to work with in any musical setting. He fosters a healthy, creative environment, encouraging those around him to improve and engage in the music-making process. He has shown kindness, patience, and a natural ability to support others, making him well-suited to teach students of all ages and skill levels.
Ian’s combination of talent, teaching ability, and passion for music will make studying music under him valuable for your musical growth. I am confident he will inspire and guide his students effectively, and I highly recommend him as a music instructor.
