I believe music is a gift that unites people together bringing out our deepest emotions that words cannot express. At the age of 5 I received an organ and from that point on I embarked on a long life journey to indulge and learn more about music.

My teaching style is very free like, I like to make sure you are using your ear when you're playing. When I say use your ear it means active listening to what is being played. When you are a bass player you and the drummer are locked in as a unit, I will go more into that in a lesson. Hearing chord progressions and understanding where to play and when to play is the difference between a good player and a great player. Read More

I am a very big proponent of adaptable teaching, specifically adjusting to the students, wants, needs and goals.

I love highlighting students excellence and seeing the joy of finally nailing something they've practiced, but even more so I love working through aspects that are particularly challenging for a student, as the reward is even greater after doing so.

The guitar is a unique instrument to teach. So-called "mirroring" is a very effective way of showing another guitarist how to play. There are many videos on YouTube, Vimeo, etc. that rely solely on this technique. That is, if you want to learn how to play a certain song there are many "instructional" videos that you can watch. That is very simple. However, do not confuse those videos with guitar instruction. Read More

Admittedly limited, my teaching experience started when I was in High School when I became the marching Band's trumpet section leader.

In college, I once again assumed the role of student and absorbed everything that I could. Now that I am graduate, I am very ready to share that with those who would have it. Read More
