The Journey Begins With Your Favorite Song.
Don't just listen to music --- live it. An inspired musical partnership to ignite your creative spirit and beyond.
"You've untapped something in me that might just be an important part of who I actually am."

A CREATIVE COMPASS
You've mastered the art of success --- now you're seeking something more. Beneath strategy and structure lies a deeper instinct: to explore, to express, to play.
​
Together we embark on a bespoke adventure to catalyze your creative potential in ways you've never imagined.
INSPIRED BY YOUR FAVORITE SONGS
What if the music you love became the music you make?
​​
As a pianist and mentor, I've spent my life sharing the transformative power of creativity. As an entrepreneur and former business leader, I'm passionate about helping professionals learn the musical language in a way that feels easy and intuitive — even for those who don’t consider themselves “creative.”
​
Piano lessons only scratch the surface of what’s possible. What’s your favorite song? We’ll use it to open doors you may not yet realize you want to walk through --- and you'll be surprised by how effortlessly new dimensions of yourself emerge.
HOW IT WORKS
Always dreamed of playing the piano? Curious to uncover the magic behind the music you love? Ready to harness creative insight to elevate how you think, lead, and live?
​
It's all possible, and together we transcend the expected. Through in-person sessions, custom materials and curated resources, you'll reconnect with parts of yourself that don't always find expression in everyday life, and experience a powerful sense of fun, freedom and self-expansion.
As both a classical pianist and a rock band keyboardist, I welcome any musical interest --- from Beethoven to the Beatles and beyond. Prior experience isn't required; I meet you where you are, identify your natural strengths, and design an engaging and evolving collaboration.
​
The outcome is as singular as the individual. Prior partnerships have sparked everything from musical achievements to meaningful evolution --- both personally and professionally. It's a journey that will reveal your inherent creative gifts, and it's my pleasure to reflect back to you the best of what I see.
"You've changed my life in so many ways. It's like a part of me has come alive."

About Leslie
My background is rooted in both artistry and leadership. I hold a Master of Music in Piano Performance with a Certificate in Piano Pedagogy from Carnegie Mellon University, as well as a BA in Music with a Certificate in Markets and Management from Duke University.
An award-winning pianist in my early years, I later channeled that same discipline into managing teams and scaling businesses. In 2012, I established a concierge music program at SEI Investments. My vision to was to help busy executives unplug and tap into a different part of their brain through the piano.
Yet something even more profound was happening --- clients were shifting out of performance mode and into possibility. They were asking new questions. Making unexpected connections. Reclaiming parts of themselves they hadn’t accessed in years.
​
I realized that the practices I'd refined through a lifetime in the creative realm held transformational potential. Today I serve as a trusted guide to those who have forged bold paths and wish to express the full range of who they are.
