For beginner students, I start with instrumental mechanics and very approachable ear training. We will listen to various styles of music in order to see the natural inclination and joy that the student possesses. From there, we will take our time developing good habits while learning music that the student finds fun and satisfying. I seek to instill musical goals and aspirations in new students by sharing and demonstrating music that they really enjoy. Read More

I love to help aspiring students to reach their goals and gain a more confident grasp of music. I've had many students over the years who have transformed their confidence levels after just a few sessions with me.

Fun and progress are the key! Playing guitar (or any instrument) should never feel like work. I gear my lessons so that students feel motivated and inspired to keep going.
