I began teaching guitar in high school to middle school students and continued teaching children and adults throughout college.

The theoretical and technical rigor of formal education allowed me to harness my self-taught musicality while preserving the trademark kinks in his imagination and playing style. After running around like headless chicken (studying, creating, teaching, performing, leading/organizing social music events, jamming with every living thing), I broke my childhood promise and decided to make music professionally. But I had begun teaching professionally far before my artistic aspirations caught up. Read More
