I have toured regionally around Texas, Arkansas, Tennessee, and Louisiana, and have been on two European trips to play.

I have found, especially for beginner and younger students (I.E. friends and family members I have taught), it is best to first see where they are in ability to play the instrument.

I encourage each student to build a list of their favorite songs. This helps them to always have something new, and something to review.

I first began teaching in high school, helping to get fellow classmates comfortable on the guitar. While at Berklee I taught music in a K-12 public school context as part of my student-teaching initiative. After graduating from Berklee I found that teaching private lessons gave me a challenge that I loved and found fulfilling. I really enjoy creating a custom plan for each student to help get them to where they want to go in playing an instrument. Read More
