Founder's Bio
I’m Jarvis Rhone, founder of Shed Lifestyles LLC and the originator of a nationally adopted tactile literacy and music readiness system for blind and low vision learners. I am the inventor of U-KEYS®, a patented tactile visual piano learning system that helps beginners and educators see, feel, and play music with confidence.
With an MBA from MidAmerica Nazarene University, I combine business strategy with creativity to design tools that make learning accessible for everyone. My second venture, Felt Greetings, extends this mission through braille and tactile greeting cards and educational aids.
My debut book, How to Play Piano: A Guide for You and Your New Piano, introduces the U-KEYS® method to homes and classrooms worldwide.
Recognized as a Kansas Delegate to the 2025 Global Entrepreneurship Congress and a To The Stars Business Innovation state and regional award winner. I’m passionate about innovation, education, and creating products that inspire lifelong learning for all.
