I began my musical odyssey as a young child watching the movie Toby Tyler. When the band started playing I jumped up and started conducting the orchestra. I was hooked from then on. I graduated from the College-Conservatory of Music at the University of Cincinnati before I decided to pursue medicine. I attended the University of North Carolina at Chapel Hill Medical School and then I completed a residency at Duke University Medical Center in anesthesia. I then moved to Dayton,Ohio and practiced for 25 years. After retiring I moved to Charlotte,North Carolina where I enjoy cooking, gardening, traveling and of course playing the piano.
