I've been playing music from childhood, and have been teaching in studios since I was 16. I extended my practice to include home lessons when I graduated from college in 2011. While my primary instrument is guitar, I have also taught piano and bass. I aim to be an encouraging teacher and I tailor my curriculum to fit my students' musical goals. I love teaching both children and adults! Read More

At the end of the day we're here to make sure the student learns the instrument and progresses towards their ultimate goal.

I started teaching back in 1995 due to repeated requests from customers at the music store where I was working retail at the time.

"Be Who You Needed When You Were Younger" has been an incredibly rewarding path for both me and my students. Read More
