I am passionate about the guitar. It is a totally unique instrument. In fact, it is the only instrument that matches the piano in range and one of the only instruments where the exact same note and pitch can be found on the same instrument. I have taught my nieces and nephews how to play the guitar. I have also taught friends and band-mates how to play the instrument and look forward to sharing my love for the instrument with others.

When I finally became employed as a teacher at the beginning of 2015, having up to 20 students per week, it became even more clear to me that I could really have been finding some sort of a calling. Very few things feel as amazing as watching another's excitement unfold as he or she makes apparent progress on his or her instrument. Read More
