Learn Piano the Human Way

I started learning piano at 23 with a $147 keyboard from some guy’s garage. No teacher. No idea what I was doing. Made every mistake possible.

Now I can actually play. Not concert-level – but real music that people recognize. Songs I’m proud of. And I built this site to help you do the same thing, faster than I did.

No fluff. No generic advice. Just real experience from someone who’s been where you are.
