I have been teaching privately for 40 years. My approach is to find out and pinpoint the students goals which we work on together to find out what they are. Many of my bass students have gone on to start their own bands or been hired by working bands and have their own careers.

I feel that my methodology encourages students to take on the instrument head on and learn how to solve problems on their own so that they can practice and improve more quickly. Read More

I'm a recent transplant to Brooklyn, NY after spending seven wonderful years studying and working in Boston!

I began teaching guitar lessons as a high school senior, and have enjoyed seeing others progress ever since. Among my one time students I can count a a former Boston Commissioner of Transportation!

Having studied with many teachers including jazz luminaries John Patitucci, Ben Street, Joe Lovano, Kenny Werner and Hal Crook, I've absorbed a multitude of techniques to help an individual student achieve his or her goals.
