I really enjoy helping high school jazz band students with their pieces. I help the students understand how to simplify their thinking on the songs to make it easier to play them. Read More

I have been teaching private lessons for about 7 years. I have been playing guitar for 20 years, and mandolin, dobro, and pedal steel for 10+. I am passionate about tailoring lessons to tackle exactly what the student wants to learn.

As discussed in "My Methods" I value our time together and want each student to get the most out of each lesson. I work with students to help them learn what they want to.
