I built a business as a professional pianist and vocal entertainer and also taught musical skills from the private to the graduate levels. In all these endeavors I developed successful solutions and systems to either develop my business or develop students skills so they could build their own careers. Putting systems together has also helped me create dozens of albums, write five books, three full-length musicals and hundreds of songs, many up for GRAMMY Awards. The system works but it does take WORK!

I know what it feels like to be stuck. I came from the gig economy while also raising 3 sons, so I'm very familiar with reinvention. I took a huge risk to put my solo headliner music show on large stages. None of my friends were doing anything like this, so it took getting beyond the self-doubt & wondering if I  could really do it. I did...but when the Great Recession of 2008-9 hit, many of my large music shows were cancelled, but I noticed speakers were still working. I expanded my platform to also include speaking & writing with a process to help others maximize their skills, talents & resources. It's a message of inspiration, hope & authentic growth.
