I'm a songwriter and pianist in Madison, Wisconsin. I teach piano. I help moderate this site.

I've done 50/90 every year since 2008. I've gotten to 50 the first few years; now I just take the time to hang out and collab.

Piano lessons anywhere in the world: I'm accepting new students online and in person. I've been doing this about 30 years. Specialties include working with adults and non-traditional learners, applied theory, and jazz harmony. I still enjoy breaking down the basics for ages 8 and up, too. Email me via the Contact button with questions or to set up a trial lesson.

Last year Eric Agner and I released an EP of our co-writes mostly from FAWM and 50/90 over course of twelve or so years. 852 miles apart for most of it, with a single day in a DC recording studio (https://tonalpark.com/(link is external)), we recorded Violet Cusp. We have been co-writing long distance since 2008. The songs, expansive and energetic, span the genre gamut.
