Gratitude is due to the following Living Saints:

~My teacher, Deborah Dewey
~My husband, Peter Wallis
~My parents, Walt and Jan Roland
~and a myriad of other people whose patience has somehow matched my orneriness.


Tonight's performance is dedicated to the memory of Christina Marie Wehr (March 15, 1959 – August 18, 2012), my choir teacher and musical inspiration from 1999-2005. She taught me and her other students that the most important thing about music is the people you share it with.

...In Training

Bonjour!

I am currently training in piano, taking private piano lessons under the tutelage of Ms. Deborah Dewey. 

My current goals are to get a Master's in either Music Education or Piano Performance.

My long-term goals are to participate in musical endeavors with other musicians in the Seattle area, and teach piano.

What I ultimately hope to accomplish is to enjoy music and share the fun with other musicians and non-musicians!

For now, I plan to use this blog to upload videos of my progress in the pieces I am currently studying.

Merci beaucoup!
