My grandfather was a piano tuner and I am following in his footsteps, using most of his tools (except the worn out tuning levers, etc.). Hence, since 2015, I am an apprentice at The Piano Man under Raymond Cugnolio.
In addition to piano tuning and technical bliss, I have been learning the skill of bass string making.
The conventions that I have attended were in 2017 and 2018.
And I do feel it necessary to inform folks that I am autistic and have a bit of communication difficulties, and absolutely love learning about [technical] things that interest me!
