Owner and Chief Technician

Holly has always been a hand's-on learner, intuitive, "What's this do? What's that do? How do I take this apart, and put it back together?" kind of a person. 

She grew up in Colorado, playing piano, even beginning college as a piano major.  Sitting beside her piano technician while growing up (the same piano technician for over 20 years!!), Holly loved watching everything he did.  Although her career began in programming databases, she realized running her own business in the arts community, away from corporations and staring at a computer all day, would be much more fulfilling. 

Holly's technician recommended studying piano tuning, repairing, and rebuilding at North Bennet Street School (NBSS) in Boston. After two years of intense and fully-immersive training at NBSS, she then achieved the title of Registered Piano Technician (RPT) through the Piano Technician's Guild. Holly has since been running Sky Piano Services, LLC.
