I'm very goal oriented with my students and flexible with their development. It is important to progress but also to take account of small achivements as much as large ones. Learning music is fun and the process should be fun through and through.

We have fun right out of the gate. I bring songs to work on that I think students will like, and invite them to tell me what music they love so that they will want to practice. I have a few books to help us work through technique, but try to use that technique in music that the student will be excited to practice. As a passionate songwriter, I also encourage students to begin composing and songwriting right away if it interests them. Read More

My journey into the intricate world of audio over the past five years has been deeply rooted in passion. Freelance roles in renowned recording studios such as CSR, FTM, and CU Denvers Core have allowed me to manifest this passion as a producer and technician. I've translated this fervor into being an Audio Engineer for an array of artists including The Pace Makers, Summer Bedhead, Keddjra, Sara Flows, Totem Pocket, Moon Maze, Katie Yeager, Nicki Walters, Diego Frenkel, Fede Flaviano, Mak Dooley, and Alison Tas.

I have been teaching music for over 7 years. I started in high school offering private instruction to families in my neighborhood. I quickly became a main source of music education in my area, and developed methods that were highly effective with younger students. During my time at Berklee College of Music, i studied music pedagogy and started developing formal lesson plans, while taking on many students of different ages (6-60). Read More

What advice do you have about practicing effectively?
Set, Achieve, Challenge!
Set a goal to what you'd like to do! whether it's all 12 major scales in all 5 CAGED system patterns, or alternate picking! once you achieve the goal, you've worked this hard, challenge that goal! Take that riff and set the metronome to a faster tempo, make a solo using all 5 CAGED System Patterns, and jam to a backing track, better yet, jam with a friend, a parent, even your teacher! Nothing makes us happier than being able to finally jam and make music with a students who speaks the music language!!
What does a normal practice session look like for you?
I start with waking up early! sometimes 5 AM, or I will sleep in to about 10 AM. Get a good healthy breakfast, so you are energized and ready!! Drink a few glasses of water, make sure you're hydrated! Now I start stretching not just my hands and arms, but my whole body from legs, to neck! Finally! I pick up the guitar, and get out my metronome app on my phone and set it to a slow tempo and begin a quasi-chromatic exercise, increase your speed very slowly!
Next is practicing every major scale an all 5 patterns of the CAGED system, plus their arpeggios, and their relative minor scales, plus other scales including, diminished, harmonic minor, ETC. After that I practice the modes of the major scale, Ionian, Dorian, Phrygian, Lydian, Mixolydian, Aeolian, and Locrian by using backing tracks!
Next either I'll write music, or I'll play along to backing tracks to my favorite musicians!
If you have a Music Degree, what is it in (Performance, Education, Musicology, Theory, Composition, etc) and why did you choose that degree?
I have an Associates degree in guitar performance from Musicians Institute, College of Contemporary
Music. I chose this because after succeeding with private instructors and being a School of Rock student, the next step was getting a degree and passing on what I've learned. Going to college for guitar performance was the most fun Ive ever had! just waking up in Los Angeles, walking with a backpack of manuscript paper, textbooks, and a guitar on Hollywood BLVD was such a highlight. I got to study with the greatest musicians in the music industry.
What is your favorite style/genre of music to play and why?
I love all types of music! But if I had to choose, I would say Progressive Metal! Because of the usage of odd time signatures and songs/albums that tell a story! The best example is the band Dream Theater! Imagine a band like YES and Pink Floyd and you give them a metal push, there you get Dream Theater! Progressive Metal brings out so much emotion, especially if the music tells a story, its just like being in a play, with characters that read a script, you SEE what the story is about! It's a great way to check out new music!
