I have taught lessons on-and-off throughout my college career. This began about five years ago when a few of my friends communicated interest in learning various instruments.

Students are encouraged to select repertoire of their choice in order to make the learning process more personal and enjoyable. Read More

I've been playing a variety of instruments since I first taught myself a few tunes on the piano at the age of 8.

My teaching experience dates back to my early 20s where I began teaching private guitar lessons part time while completing my college degree. This is something I'm extremely passionate about as an adult and would love to continue this journey.

My other experience stems from the recording workshop in which I attended in 2008 and my constant learning and own song writing that I've been doing throughout my life. Read More
