Instruments: Guitar Drums Bass Guitar Music Electric Guitar Acoustic Guitar

I began teaching guitar in high school to middle school students and continued teaching children and adults throughout college. While in music college, I grew to start to teaching bass guitar as well as drums. My teaching style is focused yet fun. Me and my students always have a good time through my curriculum of theory and how it relates to music they enjoy. Whether it’s finding music theory in Taylor Swift song, or learning the guitar neck through a Beatles solo, I always find a way to teach through interests that the students have rather than force a cookie cutter approach.

I am an enthusiastic young teacher who takes great pride in watching my students achieve their musical goals. I have been playing music since I was a child, with 15 years experience on the bass guitar alone. I have been touring regionally and nationally with my main project, Electric Love Machine, since 2014 and recently won the 2016 Maryland Music Award for Best Electronic Artist. Traveling around the country has taught me many things about musical diversity and has added many more influences to my personal repertoire. Read More

Beginning bass players will start with The Simandl Method regardless if Electric or Double Bass.

We will work with that so they feel they are accomplishing goals they want to accomplish and learning pieces they want to learn. Read More

Then as we work towards learning songs we start to see an idea pop up in what we're working on. A light bulb goes off in the student's head and they say, "oh! that's this idea that we talked about last month!"
