I am a father of two young daughters who share my passion for all types of music (so far). I've had many credits on several studio albums ranging from hip hop to country, and most genres in between. I believe that with discipline and perseverance, virtually anything is achievable. I am extremely motivated, very optimistic, and I absolutely love being in leadership roles. It is because of this affinity for leadership that teaching is something that I love to do. Read More

I've taught private lessons, group lessons, workshops, and youth music camps since 1998. I tailor my lessons to each student, according to his/her own goals and musical tastes.

If students want to write their own songs, we apply what we've learned to their songs too. Read More
