I taught my first lessons over ten years ago now.

Im an experienced and accomplished musician, and I love sharing my love of music with students. Ive greatly enjoyed many opportunities to perform and teach music over the years. Some of my greatest experiences have included touring with bands I idolized growing up, writing music and seeing it all the way through to recording and publishing, and seeing students glowing at recitals after playing their favorite song or classical piece.

I am an enthusiastic and energetic teacher that loves to help people meet their musical goals and succeed elsewhere in life. I graduated from UGA, in 2010, with a Vocal Performance degree. While I have a deep respect for classical music, I love rock 'n roll and enjoy helping others learn good technique that will last a lifetime. I have performed across the United States and Europe as a solo singer, in vocals groups, and rock 'n roll bands. Read More

I follow the interests of the student and allow that to guide the direction of our study. By trying to find out what inspires the student, I can successfully tailor my instruction to their wants and needs. This approach yields better results than forcing a student to stick to a certain method exclusively. I encourage students to divide their practice time into practicing fundamentals and technique, songs that teach them a certain concept or technique, and songs that they would like to perform or play for fun.

I have been teaching over the last 4.5 years, either in my home, traveling, or online, and as well as for a jazz academy. Teaching has shown me that I can inspire my students to enjoy what they are learning, even if it gets hard. It is all worth the practice! I love to see my students succeed and want them to desire to continue play music. I also want to see them having fun during their lessons and be able to motivate them to have fun even while practicing at home. Read More

I love showing students how to work to learn, once they see how work pays off you can't stop them. I have my own Learn To Play Guitar book that I now use as handouts that have vocabulary, open chords, bar chords, inside chords, along with major and relative minor scales. The handouts are in color and done with a graphics program so they're not handwritten. I teach them to play scales with a metronome and they are usually playing 16th notes and counting it out while they play it in the first month. Read More

My career as a teacher began 14 years ago, at the age of 14, giving guitar lessons to my friends and classmates around town. Since then I have continued to teach guitar, music theory, and ear-training to beginning and intermediate musicians of all ages and backgrounds. Emphasizing the direct correlation between consistent practice and gradual, sustained improvement is an integral part of my personal teaching method; one of the most rewarding moments of teaching and learning music, for both student and teacher, is when a student sees and internalizes the progress they've made as a result of the work they've put in.
