I am a highly organized and motivated professional guitarist with strong work ethics. Punctuality is one of my priorities as I mentored students who successfully passed auditions for the conservatory or private schools. I am fully qualified, with a B.M from Berklee College of Music. I have also been classically trained in a private school named the IMEP Paris College of Music, France.

I'm a multi-instrumentalist with over a decade of teaching experience who really enjoys watching my students grow as musicians. In 2015, I graduated from Umass Amherst with a Bachelor's degree in Music Performance and Arts Administration.
