Though I adapt my approach and conversation techniques for all of my students, my underlying philosophy is the same for every student Ive ever taught. The philosophy is that progress is what were striving for, not perfection. I assess the skill and technical abilities and grow from that point. Moving forward is the goal, as a person, student, musician, and even my ability as a teacher. I also learn from my students which pushes me towards progress as well. Read More

I played literally 100's of shows at Opryland Theme Park, Opryland Hotel and while aboard the General Jackson Riverboat.

For adults I like to see what suits their personal interests and then work together to achieve their goals through mentorship and collaboration. Read More
