for the first time at the age of 5. She continued on to major in music
and piano in college and graduated with honors from Westfield State
College in 1984. She began studying piano tuning and technology in 1986

the specialty of concert tuning, and regulation techniques under the direction of Randy
Potter, Director of the Randy Potter School of Piano Technology, Dave
Swartz, piano technician at Northwestern College School of Music, and
Ward Guthrie, piano technician at Montana State University.

a unique perspective as a technician because she is a professional
pianist. She brings her musicality and musicianship into her work as a
piano technician and works to make each piano sound its very best.
Michaud offers accurate piano tunings, working aurally in tandem with
the use of a state of the art tuning scope that will provide the most
even progressive tuning throughout the keyboard possible, accommodating
for scaling and harmonic inconsistencies.
