Hi, I'm Kayla

I started piano lessons in elementary school and continued them on and off for years, but it wasn't until I went to college that I realized I loved music in general and wanted to make a career out of it. I graduated from Bethany Lutheran College with highest honors in 2019, finishing with a bachelor's degree in music, an emphasis in percussion performance, and a passion for drum set and piano. While in school, I participated in multiple ensembles, including concert band, jazz band, pit orchestra, drumline, and concert choir. Since graduating, I've taught piano and percussion lessons, played piano and organ in my church, drummed in a local production of "The Wizard of Oz", participated in a faculty recital, attended an intense 3-day Music Together training, taught percussive music classes to older adults, and more.

Currently, I work as a music instructor for the Minnesota Conservatory for the Arts, but I also teach my own private piano lessons outside of that under the moniker "Kayla's Keys." My base of operations is in Winona, but I offer lessons to the surrounding areas as well, such as Fountain City, Minnesota City, Altura, and Stockton. Contact me today to set up lessons!
