Tweena Vuong's first piano teacher was her dad, who was self-taught. At just 10 years old, the organist at Tweena's church had to leave, creating an opening for a new accompanist. At the audition, there were those who doubted her young age and skills so her dad said, “Get over to that piano and play ‘A Whole New World’!” -- a song she had just learned -- and that's how it all began! Tweena has been performing professionally for more than 25 years now, from concerts to musical theater, bands, choirs, and hundreds of special events. But Tweena's real love is sharing this gift. She loves to teach, and gives 110% to her students to help them learn and reach their music goals. Now, she teaches at her music studio (SmartMuse Piano) in Santa Ana and is living her dream life- teaching kids, playing piano, making music, and having fun. She loves all noodles and cheeses.
