CPTP163: Christopher Oill interviews ME!


Listen Later


This podcast episode is quite different. In fact, it’s pretty unique as Christopher Oill has asked to come on the show to interview me.

In the interview, Christopher dives into what my business looks like today and how I got started. We also spoke about piano teaching trends, how to put ideas from the podcast into action and much more.
This was a really interesting chat and I hope you get a lot out of it.
