Stephanie is a classically trained pianist who has been playing the piano for over 25 years. Beginning her piano studies at the age of 4, she received her ARCT diploma in Piano Performance from the Royal Conservatory of Music (RCM) at 18 years old. Over the years, Stephanie has won numerous awards for piano competitions at various music festivals. As a shy girl growing up, she strongly believes that competitions can increase her students’ confidence and emotional maturity as they learn to become more comfortable in the limelight.
Stephanie loves teaching children and seeing them discover the joy of music, especially when they feel accomplished after learning to play the song in its entirety. Music has a unique way of allowing the musician to express their feelings that is truly magical. She still remembers the wonderful memories she had with her own piano teacher and the beauty of channeling inexplicable emotions into her music.
After completing her ARCT diploma, Stephanie went on to become a fully licensed lawyer in Ontario. Aside from the law, music is a huge source of her joy and she continues to fuel her love for music through teaching. Her goal is to help students discover the gift of music that will last them a lifetime.
