Instruments: Guitar Voice Ukulele Electric Guitar Classical Guitar Acoustic Guitar
Music has been an integral part of my life since I was old enough to learn how to turn on the radio. While through the years I have developed an appreciation for all styles of music, my personal playing style revolves around classical, pop, rock, jazz, and blue-grass. I have played in educational and amateur groups since college and started playing professionally about 20 years ago. I feel that the final step in any musician's development is to learn to play in a group. Read More

When a student has got the basics down, I will begin to teach them songs of their choosing and recommend songs to learn. For more intermediate to advanced students, I will find their passion and see what they want to play. I will work to inspire them and get them to perform as much as possible. I understand that everyone learns differently, so I will make each student their own unique lesson plan in order to maximize learning. Read More

Though there are many different ways to teach, I will gravitate more towards my preferred learning style which is through discovery and analysis. I enjoy finding different ways to tackle one specific task and I enjoy taking part in that journey with my students. Those moments when their eyes light up when they realize a whole new dimension of possibilities just opened up for them because they found a new piece to the puzzle. Read More
Instruments: Piano Guitar Voice
Each student interested in expanding their knowledge and abilities in voice, piano/keyboard or guitar will be introduced to reading music and asked to practice the lesson plan each week at home. With practice, you will see your abilities grow stronger and stronger, and you will be able to play and sing along to music with ease. We will be working from lesson books specifically designed for you, and each weekly lesson will be documented in a notebook as a daily practice reference guide. Read More

Hi, I am a highly passionate and devoted instructor. Music has captivated my mind and imagination all of my life, so having the opportunity to teach an instrument, music theory, and talk about music is something I genuinely cherish. I graduated from the University of California, San Diego in June of 2023, and have been working as a guitar instructor for just about 3 years now. I have spent 11 years with the guitar, and even spent 6 years as part of an advanced choir before college. Read More

I am a voice, piano, and guitar teacher. I prefer to teach in an easygoing, but precise manner and try to adapt to all my students needs. Ive been in love with music since I was a kid, singing along to everything I could. I studied music in college and graduated in 2012, then started teaching privately in January of 2014. Along with the act of teaching and the enjoyment of music, Im a huge fan of tasty food, learning new things, and exploring the world around me. Read More

Does music run in your family? Tell us a little about your musical family members.
Yes. Dad is a guitar player, sister sings & plays the flute. We've all been involved in musical theater, often together.
When did you decide to become a professional musician? Was it a gradual decision or was there a defining moment for you?
Of course there was a calling all along, but it was the realization that I could make money from playing. It's something that I love doing and sharing, but at the end of the day- there's nothing unartistic about making money! Who wouldn't want to make a living doing what they love?!
Did you have a teacher that inspired you to go into music? How did they inspire you?
I had three fantastic teachers growing up, each of them led me down a creative and passionate path and were fantastic role models to look up to. It's important to have a mentor!
Why did you choose your primary instrument?
Music was a big part of my life since I was a wee lad- earliest memories involve my dad (a guitar player himself) playing me Abbey Road by the Beatles and Layla & Other Assorted Love Songs by Derek & the Dominoes. After seeing footage of Ringo, that was it!
What musical accomplishments are you most proud of?
In no particular order:
-being a paid musician since 14
-graduating from music school in 2007
-the ability to establish oneself and find work in music after a move (SE Michigan, Los Angeles, Austin, greater NY area, etc)
And for something much more specific: I recall filling in for a top 40 band in Santa Monica, CA. At our set break, one of the band members came up to me to exclaim at how much the crowd was dancing, and that they never would dance with their regular drummer. Getting people up and dancing? That's what it's all about!
What do you think is the hardest thing to master on your instrument?
Discipline and restraint!
How do I know if my child is ready to start lessons?
Hitting pots and pans? Singing along to music? Is in need of a creative outlet? Really, it's all of the above! If there's any interest in the arts at all, we should be fostering that!
When will I start to see results?
Depends on the student and their interests/work ethic. Important to remember that everybody learns and processes information differently, and music is in no way a competition so comparisons to other musicians/students are unwarranted.
What advice do you have about practicing effectively?
Practice does not equal perfection! If you're lucky, practice will make you better than you were before, and the most efficient method is simply pick a few specific things to work on and make a 'practice session road map'. Practicing a few things for a shorter amount of time will allow for more focus and intent instead pushing oneself in no direction for hours on end. It's also important to document what was practiced, what progress was made, and what to focus on for the next session.
