I've worked with Grammy winner Seal, I've played for Pres.Clinton, and the president of Angola. I got to perform on Leno, Letterman, Kimmel, and others. Read More

If they want to specialize in a certain area I use additional backup materials.

I have been fortunate enough to have lessons from excellent instructors, and I try to borrow my favorite methods from each of them. Read More
