I have been playing guitar for over 20 years, with much of that time spent giving private instruction to students of all ages. Having first started playing other instruments as a child, my love of music really took off when I began playing the guitar in my teen years. I have since performed in many different venues and also enjoy playing in a local church. My playing styles vary between pop, rock, alternative, blues, christian and folk music. Read More

As a teacher, I always want to accomodate to the student's vision of what he or she would like to achieve through learning music. Personalizing lesson plans and objectives in this way is extremely empowering to the student and promotes more devotion of time to learning outside of the lessons. I strongly believe the most important way to measure a student's progress is by setting short-term and long-term goals. By helping the student develop or facilitate their goals, learning music is far more rewarding and will become an activity that will last a lifetime. Read More

My teaching style is based on the student's skill level. I teach at your pace! Not only do I teach at the student's pace, I have each student construct their own goal calendar to keep in my records as well as the student's home. I like to call it a "music vision board" because to me there are no numerical deadlines on a student's musical progress. I like to find out what inspires a student in order to better my teaching.
