Hello! I am a young guitar teacher who can help you take steps towards your goals of performing, writing music, or simply being proficient at guitar or bass. If you feel like you're stuck with your playing, or are having trouble getting started, I have the tools to help you out! I encourage my students to learn songs that they enjoy and bring them to me for help and a thorough explanation of exactly what is happening in the song, so you can learn the intricacies of the song instead of only knowing how to play it.

For younger students I employ the Suzuki Method which comprises a series of books and particular approach to teaching that I've found to be quite effective. The books provide a very well thought out sequence of pieces that help the student learn all of the necessary skills to play the guitar in the context of actual music rather than abstract exercises, and the method encourages a lot of parental involvement which helps to make at home practice (the most important part of learning any instrument) much more effective.

My passion is music and spreading that joy to others. Each student is different and special. I find ways to tap into the potential of all students (of any age), and assist them in goal setting, using music as a tool in many ways, and building the confidence to continue adding music- performance or not- into their lives. I took a very non-traditional path into music as a career, but I love guiding others in their musical pursuits from a viewpoint of someone who made missteps along my journey, and strive to be the best musician and teacher I can be.
