My teaching style is quite formal, as I tend to enjoy conveying my methods, in addition to my playing style in a dignified, yet light and friendly manner. I take from the teachings of my past teachers, and respected players, such as Andy Goessling, Tony Trischka, Dino Govoni, and George Garzone. I like to encourage my students to ask questions, even going so far as to tell them "the dumbest question is the one left unasked." I truly believe in pushing my students to be their very best, and trying to best suit my instruction to them as people. Read More

Music is an essential part of my life. I believe music is the last tangible magic left in society. In 1988, I got a guitar as a Christmas gift. Building from what I learned in school, I taught myself how to play guitar. At sixteen I started playing in bands outside of school. I continue to this day to play in bands. I have played in Chicago, Milwaukee, St. Louis, and several towns and cities in Illinois. Read More
