I'm passionate about teaching and getting my students excited about learning and progressing with their instrument. I focus on a personalized curriculum, not a "one size fits all" approach. I played guitar professionally for over 10 years in California - writing, performing and touring the original music club circuit from L.A. to Sacramento including dates at the famous Whisky A Go Go in Los Angeles and The Fillmore in San Francisco.

For beginning students who are children, I typically start with Hal Leonard's Essential Elements. Once the student has progressed to have a grasp of the fundamentals, I will begin to introduce solo repertoire appropriate for their first recital performance. For adults, I try to find out what the student is interested in, and guide my instruction accordingly to keep the lessons engaging and fun, no matter their ability level. Students are able to select their own music and share their interests with me. Read More
