After spending more than 30 years in the musical instrument retail industry, I have gained experience in every facet of the business to which I have dedicated my life. My education and experience have prepared me for all of the challenges of this ever changing industry. My passion for the health and stability of this industry is my strongest asset. I have worked from the ground floor entry position of a piano delivery boy all the way to the ownership of my own store. Now, I find myself working for the industry leader in commitment to customer satisfaction and the highest standards of associate training and leading technology.
