Theo Boylan hailing from a quaint town 80 miles from Chicago, cultivated her musical prowess from an early age, immersing herself in the exciting realms of piano and oboe performance. Her passion for classical music blossomed at the piano during her formative years, eventually evolving into a fulfilling career path.

During the piano sales surge of the mid to late 1990s, Theo honed a distinctive customer service approach that resonated deeply with local music educators and clientele alike.
