I have been teaching since February of 2019. Beginner high school players, more specifically. Working with absolute beginners has given me the tools to be patient with someones success.

I want my students to understand that it's fun, though sometimes difficult. Ultimately, I love seeing people light up the more they learn. Read More

It is important to me that each student feels comfortable during their lessons. I am very patient and understanding; I fully believe that a low-pressure environment helps students to thrive.

I'm a passionate musician who eats, sleeps, and breathes music. The minute I had a guitar in my hand since I was 14, I never stopped falling in love with the instrument. While I graduated in 2015 with a Bachelors of Science degree at the University of Illinois at Chicago, I was performing with local musicians around the area and taking jazz lessons with faculty and students within the university. Since moving to Detroit at the end of 2015, I have become integrated within the local Detroit music scene, playing with two bands currently, which have played music festivals such as the Hamtramck Music Festival and the Detroit Concert of Colors.

This way the student is more involved in the learning process and it can make their time spent learning an instrument more worth it. Read More
