I’m a member of the PTG and regularly attend educational guild meetings & classes.

I have done an apprenticeship with some of the best technicians in town and am now a Registered Piano Technician myself after a serious of rigorous tests.
- How did you get started doing this type of work?
My parents bought me a 1930s baby grand piano about 9 years ago. While at the Family Music store I met a piano tuner Kelly Dugger and we hired her to tune my piano. I had been thinking about piano technology for a little while, but watching her work was fascinating! She explained some of the process and it just solidified that this is what I was supposed to be doing. I started attending Piano Technicians Guild meetings and became a member of the guild in 2017.
