Additional Info:	I am professional pianist with my BM from the University of Colorado at Boulder and an MM from Manhattan School of Music. My highest achievements as a pianist include winning the First Prize in the Bradshaw and Buono International Piano Competition in 2008 and playing in Carnegie Hall on the winner’s recital and again there the next season for the Alexander and Buono Competition's Second Annual fund raiser.
