Hello! I am a young guitar teacher who can help you take steps towards your goals of performing, writing music, or simply being proficient at guitar or bass. If you feel like you're stuck with your playing, or are having trouble getting started, I have the tools to help you out! I encourage my students to learn songs that they enjoy and bring them to me for help and a thorough explanation of exactly what is happening in the song, so you can learn the intricacies of the song instead of only knowing how to play it.

As a classically trained vocalist and multi-instrumentalist, I have been instructing for 10 years, alongside my activities in performance. I have been instructing students and colleagues within the University setting, as well as in private lessons. I encourage students to listen to music and to dive into their respective sounds as much as they can because immersion is key to understanding how to embody their sound. If a student is missing that piece to their musical character, then that is where I come in, to stoke the flame, and focus it. Read More
