I am excited to help you on your musical journey. As a child, I always listened to and wanted to make music.

In 2014, I started performing regularly as a soloist and in ensembles, began teaching in 2019, and in 2020 I graduated from the University of Washington with a degree in guitar performance, where I studied classic guitar with Michael Partington.

There is not one method that fits all students and all styles. Young children and beginners on the guitar need to slowly develop strength and control of finger movements, while still being motivated when they learn how to play along with their favorite songs.
