Elizabeth began learning piano at an early age, receiving lessons from six years of age through high school from one of the most sought after piano teachers in the south who was also an instructor at Millsaps College and Belhaven University.

After twelve years of classical training Elizabeth received a music scholarship to Belhaven University.  At the age of fourteen, after coming to Christ and being born again, Elizabeth began playing gospel music and was soon playing worship songs at her local church in Jackson, Mississippi.

Elizabeth would spend the rest of her life using her musical talents for the Lord and His church in various states.  At 83 years of age Elizabeth still plays the piano for her home church in St Peters, MO where she resides.  The hymns of the Lord continue to be precious to her.
