June 29, 2026Monica is Exceptional
Our chorus concert was a tremendous success, and a huge part of that was thanks to our phenomenal pianist. From the very first rehearsal to the final note of the performance, she demonstrated exceptional musicianship, professionalism, and attention to detail. She accompanied my students with such skill and sensitivity, making them feel confident and supported every step of the way. Her ability to adapt, follow me (and the choir), and bring each piece to life was truly remarkable. She arrived prepared, communicated well, and was a joy to work with throughout the entire process. Her talent elevated our performance, and I couldn't have asked for a better collaborative pianist.
I highly recommend her to anyone looking for an outstanding accompanist. She is not only incredibly gifted but also dependable, kind, and an absolute pleasure to work with. I look forward to working with her again!

Clear communication and rock solid commitment are my core values. We’ll work out your needs and schedule as well as my rate, and then you can relax and know that I’ll show up on time and prepared to make your event sound beautiful.
If you aren’t sure exactly what music you want, no worries! I have stacks of music and ready made set lists to make your planning easy. If you have special pieces that you want to hear, let me know, and I’ll do my best to add them in. There may be an additional charge if the music requires additional purchases or is unusually difficult.
I am a highly flexible and adaptable person who loves to make people happy, so if you have any questions, just ask!
About
I’ve been at the keys since long before my feet could reach the pedals, and I still love my time on the piano bench. My training has deep roots in the precision, discipline, and technique of classical music, but I also love the uninhibited emotion and improvisational vibe of popular music. I’ve played for parties, singalongs, dinners, churches, and funerals - and while I enjoy the solo spotlight as much as a performing musician, I know how to share it too.
There’s nothing like live music to set the tone and the mood for an event. Live music is something precious and ephemeral, a fleeting thing of beauty. Drop me a line, and we can bring live art to your special event.
Additional booking notes
If your venue has a piano on site, please be sure that it is in good repair and in tune. Ask your venue coordinator if you aren’t sure! An out of tune piano will sound terrible no matter how skilled the player.
I am able to pack my own equipment (keyboard and amp) for an additional fee. In that case, I will need access to a power supply on site (just a regular electrical outlet is fine).
If you have questions, please reach out!
