I originally started teaching private lessons late in high school and have been teaching students ever since. I greatly enjoy the lessons I teach and it is very important to my that my student teaching enjoys them too. I have taught students with experience levels ranging from beginner to advanced, and ages ranging from kids to adults. I have had many incredible guitar teachers over the years who have inspired in many ways, and my goal is to provide the same inspiration and guidance that I have been given in the past. Read More

I approach teaching from a place of understanding. The last thing anyone wants is to be frustrated by the thing they're passionate about! Not everyone learns at the same pace, so if a student is struggling with a passage or technique, I'll set realistic goals to motivate them to improve their skill in a way that entices them to continue. Whether it's breaking up a song into sections or slowing down a complicated solo until we nail the right notes, there's always a light at the end of the tunnel. Read More

My teaching style is very relaxed and laid back. I like to let the students be themselves and tell me exactly what they personally are trying to achieve with their music. If they want to secretly be a metalhead shredding like Steve Vai, I want them to tell me and I will be happy to help them get there! If they want to be the next Taylor Swift, that's okay too!

I began teaching guitar when I was 15 years old. At first it was like many part-time in high school, but it quickly became a passion for me. I grew to love watching a student discover the things they could create as they learned to use the instrument. It is like watching them find an entirely new world. In order to encourage this, I have found that the lessons have to be fun and the musical preferences of the student have to be taken into account. Read More

I love teaching Voice and have a particular affinity for meeting the needs of the student. Every voice is unique, and should be treated as such with careful consideration. I instill pedagogical principles for healthy singing in all my students. I help students establish their goals/interests, and we achieve them through fun and engaging warm ups and appropriate repertoire. I received a Masters Degree in Vocal Performance and taught at the Collegiate Level at The University of Alabama. Read More

I have performed at the Lancaster Roots & Blues Festival and the Philadelphia Folk Festivals, and my true passion is to play and share my love for music with as many people as I can.

Whether you are looking to improve your classical technique, learn fiddle tunes, learn chords on the guitar, find your voice as a songwriter, or explore singing and vocal techniques, I hope I can be a supportive part of your journey!
