I began accordion lessons at eight years old with Gaviani Conservatory in Lynn, MA. I was a student there for three years. As a youngster, I was always a big hit at family birthday parties and anniversaries.

After watching many outstanding accordion performances on YouTube, I returned to the accordion world in 2013, taking lessons with Paul Monte, then Jan Borelli. I enjoy all types of accordion music. Whenever I have friends over, I grab my accordion and play a few tunes. Everyone loves it.

Participation in RUK Orchestra provides lasting enjoyment, as well as an extraordinary learning experience.
