Instruments: Guitar Cello Bass Guitar Double Bass
I started my teaching carreer in 1994, teaching doublebass and bass guitar. Two years later I began offering guitar lessons. In 1998 I offered cello lessons. My passion for teaching has grown over the years, and brought me great pleasure helping beginner students gain skills, confidence, and a sense of pride and accomplishment in learning to successfully play a musical instrument. I been able to teac advanced bass students techniques that increased their playing skills and understanding of their instrument and music in general. My greatest pleasure was helping a young, nervous, shy, and self conscious young boy, and over time, with his efforts and my guidance, was able to apply and get accepted into music college. Read More

My teaching style is more hands on approach, I have a lot of opportunities for my students to perform. I believe that actually playing the instrument will make them better players and performers. Even when a student sign up for private lessons, I have opportunities for them to perform in groups. I think that students learn better when they have the chance to perform in a group. I also hold master classes for the students to learn from. Read More
Instruments: Guitar Bass Guitar
My teaching style stems from my philosophy that music is a language. So my approach is focused on using the skills and knowledge while "speaking", or playing, with other musicians. That is why my approach is focused on jamming. After the student can understand how to make the instrument sound, I immediately give them the oppertunity to put their skills into practice. I will take time from each lesson to just jam with the student and allow them to explore the instrument. Read More

If you weren't a musician what do you think you'd be doing instead?
I would write. I love to tell stories - which is what writing songs is for me. I find people and experiences to be so interesting. I'm inspired by ideas. By how people think. Language, like music, can be beautiful and graceful. I'm inspired by how a great author can turn phrases. Like writing songs, I'm moved to create things that don't already exist. Writing a story is like sitting with the guitar and writing a new song. Beginning with an idea, a sound, a character - then developing that sound or character into a story. Both writing books and songs is an attempt to explain the human condition. To connect emotionally.
What is your dream piece to perform and why?
I don't have a dream piece to perform. I write my own music and get the most satisfaction performing my own songs. As a child, there was certainly music I wanted to perform. Anything by The Beatles or Jimi Hendrix. In college, there were a variety of classical pieces that I wanted to perform. One of my favorite pieces to perform on guitar is "Asturias (Leyenda)" a work by the Spanish composer and pianist Isaac Albéniz. Originally a piano piece, it has become popular on the guitar. I'm most excited to write and record my music. Performing those songs live is the height of music, for me.
If you have a Music Degree, what is it in (Performance, Education, Musicology, Theory, Composition, etc) and why did you choose that degree?
I hold a Bachelor of Arts degree from Lindenwood University with emphasis in Classical Guitar Performance. It's a Liberal Arts degree - I also studied literature, history, science, math, etc. I chose the classical music program because I wanted to learn more about Music History. I also wanted to learn advanced Music Theory. I wanted a program that was diversified outside my major. For example, I learned about the Renaissance period in Music History while also learning what was going on in the world outside of music and art in my World History class.
What does a normal practice session look like for you?
I spend most of my time writing, recording and performing live. But I do take time to study. I have a playlist on Spotify with a list of songs or pieces of music I want to learn. I also have a large collection of classical scores that I work on regularly. When I learn a song, I listen to all the instruments. I won't solely focus on the guitar. I will learn the vocal (lyrics and melody), I'll study the what the rhythm section is doing. I'll study the production. I want to learn everything about the song.
