I'll of course step in at any significant roadblocks but people tend to make a lot of progress when they're pushed to do it themselves. Read More

I started learning to play guitar when I was about 6 years old. Had a few uncles who taught me how to strum a few chords here and there, and then went through about 4 actual guitar teachers before I found the one that really helped me the most. He helped me enjoy what I was learning. That was the game changer in my playing!

I love seeing my students develop a passion for music! That is why I make sure each student progresses at their own pace by setting realistic goals for each lesson.

I recently have been teaching elementary general music as well as directing a middle school choir and orchestra. Read More
