Most of all I enjoy sewing the seed of passion that I received when I began playing my first guitar at the age of 8, and nurturing that which has brought me to love and enjoy the music I experience everyday of my life. I hope that everyone of my students gets out of the each lesson exactly what they came for and more. Whether you are looking for a hobby, trying to reach mastery, or just want to learn a few tunes for a loved one, I want to focus the lesson to your desire. Read More

My teaching method combines classical tradition with a personalized, goal-oriented approach. I emphasize proper technique, musical expression, and a clear understanding of theory and historical context. I use structured materials such as RCM and ABRSM syllabi for technique and repertoire, and integrate ear training, sight-reading, and interpretation into each lesson. I tailor my approach to each students strengths, challenges, and interests, ensuring balanced progress. Whether preparing for exams, auditions, or personal growth, students receive consistent feedback and motivation. Read More

If you are interested in taking piano/keyboard, guitar or voice lessons...I would really like to be your music instructor! I will travel to your home, hoping to make it more convenient for those students that would like their lesson after school hours. You are also welcomed to my home music studio each week for your lesson, conveniently located in Anaheim. To tell you a little about myself, I was raised in a musical family introduced to music at a very young age. Read More

I mostly do paperless. Less money involved, less waste of papers. I use a lot of videos and recordings. The principal instrument that needs to be trained is the hears. Brain and fingers immediately after. When a method is necessary, based on level of the student and topics studied, I recommend Creative Guitar by Guthrie Govan 1 and 2; Advancing Guitarist by Mick Goodrick and The Lesson by Victor Wooten. This last one is not properly a method, but an incredible book about music and musicians, that teaches more than the big majority of methods out there Read More

I find a balanced approach to studying technique, sight reading, theory and the students favorite songs to be the best recipe for keeping motivated and engaged. Beginning students will use Mel Bay's Modern Guitar Method (Book 1) to get into the basics of these elements down, while learning basic voicings of the most common chords that will allow them to dive into playing some of their favorite songs almost immediately. Lessons for more advanced students will be tailored to their individual needs, and can cover anything from improvising, to songwriting to learning complicated solos and advanced guitar techniques.

Beginning students I will start off with songs they already love and enjoy. I believe there is a certain energy and passion in learning your favorite songs. And I encourage every student to learn the songs they enjoy. I work with a method that takes both beginner and advanced students through each piece of their favorite song. While focusing on customized goal setting for each student. I work diligently to prepare my students for the future, should they want to join a band or write music on their own. Read More

When did you decide to become a professional musician? Was it a gradual decision or was there a defining moment for you?
Ultimately it was in the latter part of my senior year in highschool. I had the question any senior had... "What do I do for the rest of my life?", and I had the question "Do I do what I love and live virtually penniless , or do I do something I don't love and make more money?" I chose the former. I'd rather work and work at something I love frankly. I have not regretted this decision.
Does music run in your family? Tell us a little about your musical family members.
My dad and uncle grew up playing saxophone in local bands all around Lake Charles, as well as the marching band for their high school. They played alto saxophone very beautifully.
If you have a Music Degree, what is it in (Performance, Education, Musicology, Theory, Composition, etc) and why did you choose that degree?
I'm currently working on my Bachelor's in Classical Guitar Performance at the University of New Orleans. I chose this degree because I love the instrument and its music immensely. I chose performance over education simply because in a performance degree you get significantly more music related classes. During high school I worked in summer camps for kids, and the aftercare at a school as well as a nursery for a church. So I'm confident I can relay instruction to students without the education classes. After I finish my bachelor's I'll move on to become a certified teacher and teach locally wherever I can find a job.
What is your dream piece to perform and why?
Above all I want to perform Joaquin Rodrigo's "Concierto de Aranjuez" as the solo guitarist accompanied by an orchestra. It is arguably the most famous concierto in classical music as a whole, and is undisputed to be the most famous Classical Guitar concierto, and for good reason. It is the most gorgeous piece for the guitar, it's second movement tells the tale beautifully of this gut-wrenching heartbreak and loss, while its third movement is inspiring joy.
If you weren't a musician what do you think you'd be doing instead?
I would be pursuing a degree in the healthcare profession, either as a doctor or a nurse. This is influenced because I grew up with both my parents working in healthcare. My dad was a doctor and my mom was a nurse, and they came home happy so often and it was so clear that had an immense love for their professions and that was contagious to me.
What is your favorite style/genre of music to play and why?
Classical, of course. Growing up I never had many musicians to play with and so I looked for music that could be played unaccompanied. Classical music can achieve this easily by the many voices played on the one instrument, and is complex enough to not get boring on its own.
If you play more than one instrument, how did you decide to start playing the second? (Or 3rd, 4th, 5th, etc)!
All the instruments I picked up are closely related to guitar in some way. Technically they're all "Lute-Chordophones" which is a fancy way of saying that the instruments I play are fretted stringed instruments. Ukulele is like a mini guitar with its own specific nuances. Mandolin came from my love of its master performer, Chris Thile, and my love and origins in folk music.
