I started learning guitar on a nylon string acoustic and playing songs from my favorite punk or grunge bands. Eventually I got myself an electric guitar and amp and things really took off for me.

Not one lesson is the same. I cater each lesson to the student. Every student is different and have a different learning style! With my first lesson, I love to sit down down with the student and/or the parent and to discuss expectations and get to know the student. I also determine what level they are at so I know where we need to begin. Every student has their own unique experience. Read More
