Regardless of level, we work hard and have fun. I have high expectations but also patience with meeting you at your level and making it comfortable to progress! I believe that exposure to a diversity of musical styles best supports students in developing their skills and appreciation for all music. Technique is just as important as creativity. We practice both. With this in mind, I sometimes will listen to you play, and other times I will accompany you with percussion, drums, or guitar. Read More

My teaching experience dates back to High School as I began teaching part time. I continued teaching thru collage and the Airforce Band. After College I played full-time for many years.

Encouraging regular practice on a consistent schedule is one of the key points I like to emphasize for younger students, as it tends to help the student progress and gain a passion for the instrument.

I recommend that anyone starting to learn music begins at the age of ten simply because of finger strength and focus.

I give small amounts of homework after every lesson and try to create a fun environment for learning that is stress-free. Read More

I LOVE teaching people how to play the guitar! I have been playing guitar since I was a child and I grew up in a music-loving household. I was in a rock band in high school. In college at UMBC I was also in a band and earned my degree in Music with a concentration in Recording Engineering. I've recorded several self-produced albums of music I wrote and produced myself.
