“Music Is Not What I Do, It’s Who I Am” - Unknown

How do you define yourself?

Often, when introducing myself to people, however, I identify myself by stating “I am a musician.”

Music radiates every area of my life. From my earliest moments it has been a significant part of each day.

Music is ...
… how I express my faith.
… how I cope with stress.
… how I release creativity.
… how I am able to earn a living.
… and so much more.

I am a musician and I feel incredibly fortunate to live in the Lowcountry of SC where music is respected and valued. For me, each week holds variety through music therapy, private piano instruction, and professional music performances, and I wouldn’t have it any other way.

Specifically, launching Lowcountry Pianist & Co. has been incredibly rewarding. We have enjoyed connecting with and serving members of our community over the past 6 months. This blog will be the hub to learn more about our company, to share resources to assist as you plan your event, and to provide pointers for other musicians and small business owners.

Welcome!

With appreciation -

“Lowcountry Pianist”
