Instruments: Guitar Bass Guitar Ukulele Double Bass
In my teaching style I ask students to explore specific aspects and material that they would like to learn. As I cater to this approach, I compliment it by incorporating fundamentals, theory and improvisation into my lessons. I am a competent teacher and enjoy teaching and continually learning through music. I also enjoy helping students with song writing, arranging and singing as their interest warrants. The lessons are usually guided by the interests of the student based on his or her goals. Read More

I am a classically trained clarinet player who learned every Rock instrument along the way and some other instruments. I'm currently in multiple bands including a Classic Rock cover band and a Latin band (Rock, Funk, Reggae, Ska, Cumbia). I write music in a variety of styles as well, such as singer/songwriter, Rock, EDM/trance, and even wrote a piece for the Diablo Valley College Philharmonic Orchestra. I'm also a big music theory geek which adds to my teaching ability. Read More
Instruments: Guitar
I like to focus on the music with a relaxed approach and help create a positive and supportive environment with apatient, easy going manner. I'm comfortable going over small sections of music, looking at new material, exercises, practicing songs, explaining concepts that help the student gain insight and improve on the guitar. For assessment purposes I like toask a few questions pertaining to the music, styles and particular artists that the student has an interest in to shape a individual lesson with custom material.I believe inemphasizing musicianship and practical aspects of learning guitar while realizing that aspirations, inspiration and individual creativity are so important.Music lessons areenjoyable!

Nothing is more rewarding than seeing one of my students develop a passion for music! Therefore, it's important that each student progresses at his or her own pace. I encourage this by setting realistic goals for my students at each lesson. Acknowledging accomplishments helps fuel a students desire to progress, and makes students eager to learn more. By trying to find out what inspires the student, I can successfully tailor my instruction to their wants and needs.Nothing is more rewarding than seeing one of my students develop a passion for music!

I believe that every student is different, whether it is their anatomy and how there body fits the instrument, or the amount of talent that one possesses. Therefore, my teaching style is to make entirely customized lessons for a certain student. As I mentioned in my methods, I would make the student play pieces, but I will pick them based on what I believe would improve what the student lacks in, such as certain techniques. Read More

The most rewarding thing I experience is when I see a student get super excited after they have just learned something new and challenging. My approach to learning guitar is like a mini game in which you know when you have passed a certain level. It is clear what's next, and you can't move on until you have beaten the boss of each level, and my students love this! I look at guitar a lot differently than most people, and I also teach it differently. Read More
Instruments: Piano Guitar Violin Cello Viola Bass Guitar Organ Ukulele Electric Violin Music Keyboard Electric Guitar
Throughout years of teaching I began making every lesson unique in a way that would benefit the student the most. The number one goal is for the student to have fun and learn at the same time. I was taught in a very rigorous fashion by high level teachers. I know what it means to look forward to coming to class. I love teaching because it lets me avoid the mistakes my teachers made in the past when it came my time to learn music. Read More

When did you decide to become a professional musician? Was it a gradual decision or was there a defining moment for you?
It was always a goal of mine to improve and become a professional musician in the genre. Overtime I noticed my playing abilities became greater and greater over the years and I soon as I knew it I was already improving to the next level in a short amount of time this proved to me that it was what I needed to do in life. I can’t say there was a specific defining moment because music is a lifetime journey but if I had to say there was a specific moment It would definitely be receiving my first guitar when I was 12 years old that they change my life. I was filled with so much joy and happiness something that I can always say was huge for me.
Does music run in your family? Tell us a little about your musical family members.
I can definitely say music has ran in my family over the years. My mother was a great singer when I was a kid and I could deathly say that rubbed off on me with playing guitar. Music was always played in my house it was a huge part of the family so I can say I definitely come from a musical family. Music is an expression which I feel can hold a family together and build a strong infrastructure. My family always have supported my musical talents and abilities and I’ve always push me to further it I am thankful for their support and being passionate towards music!
If you play more than one instrument, how did you decide to start playing the second? (Or 3rd, 4th, 5th, etc)!
I’ve deafly only stuck with one instrument because I believe if you really have a passion for that one estimate you’ll stick with that only to achieve complete greatness. I have dabbled around with bass and piano in my younger years taking classes in it and learning theory behind those but definitely guitar has only been my first and my one true love. I could never betray playing guitar for another instrument because it’s my favorite instrument to play and has always been since I was a young man and I think my parents for that support.
What is your favorite style/genre of music to play and why?
Jazz guitar is definitely a huge influence of mine and one of my favorite styles to play it’s definitely something that requires a great deal of knowledge and preciseness behind this playing. I just love the sounds that creates and it’s definitely something I want to further my abilities in every day it’s pushing me to take it to the next level and really master the genre. Overtime when I’m older I deafly want to have a larger influence in this genre as long as I keep up my playing I deafly will be able to master it over the years.
What is your dream piece to perform and why?
My dream is to perform all 24 of Paganini’s Caprices clean and thoroughly. His pieces are so rigorous and tedious and technical that it would definitely require a great amount of skill to complete them all simultaneously and clean. I know one day I will be able to achieve this and it’s definitely a huge dream of mine because I love his pieces and the way they sound they are definitely beautiful instrumental pieces to practice. I myself as a musician work on these pieces daily in hopes of finally achieving them I know one day I will!
If you weren't a musician what do you think you'd be doing instead?
If I wasn’t a musician I definitely would be a teacher in some other form of art because of course music is an artform. I definitely get up the filming from teaching so it’s something that I would be doing regardless whether it was guitar not. There’s no better feeling than teaching someone in seeing them improve with whatever they do it’s such a huge for filming in life I can’t describe the feeling I get from teaching it’s like military experience I wouldn’t be doing anything else instead because it’s my passion!
