About
I am a musician from Phoenix who has been teaching for since I was 15. I have experience playing in musical theater pits, bands, classical ensembles, and have history touring and studio work. I have experience teaching students of all ages. Whether you’re wanting to become a professional level player or just looking for a fun hobby to work on I can show you the tools to put you on the right track towards your goals. I studied music performance at ASU with my primary instrument in guitar.

Frequently asked questions
What is your typical process for working with a new student?
The first lesson is typically an assesment of the students ability at their instrument. It isn't anything to worry about, I just like to have a baseline for where a student is at so I can give them material to practice based on technique they might need some extra work on. I don't teach out of a method book for most of my students, I typically come up with exercises based on the songs that they want to learn. Nobody wants to practice things they arenn't interested in, even me.
What education and/or training do you have that relates to your work?
I am in my senior year at ASU working towards a Bachelor's Degree in Guitar Performance.
