I'm a well round and passionate instructor who enjoys working with students and sharing the experiences I've had as a musician. In 2008, I graduated from Fullerton College with a degree in Music Performance. For the past 10 years I've been performing with bands of all types of genres from Country to Rock to Reggae and even Big Band era Swing. Performing in several bands around LA and Orange County has given me the opportunity to play on the deck of the USS Midway in San Diego and at the Queen Mary in Long Beach. Read More

I supplement my students repertoire with music by Fernando Sor and Leo Brouwer and occasionally introduce my own music. Read More

My intermediate and advanced students focus on higher levels of music theory and finger techniques that are designed to break the pattern of repetitious playing. Read More

I teach to inspire fun and love in music and to give the student a sense of accomplishment in their progress. Once I know the student I can cater the teaching style to their individual needs. In my experience, a young student must see results, they need to know they aren't treading water, so I believe it's imperative to keep the student engaged and fully aware of how they're progressing.
