    Frequently asked questions

    There is no typical process. Every student is different and has their own unique goals and needs. My job is to find out what that is from the beginning to help them get to where they want to be. 

    I have 18 years of experience. I have done extensive schooling along with lessons from multiple instructors. I have released two albums one with (The Monarch) and one with (Empyrean Sanctum), and continue to do so. I have experience with studio work and recording, and I also have experience with live performance as well.

    longer time slots can be worked out as well.

    Passion. I love what I do, and people noticed this early on. People have come to me to learn pretty early on. So I decided to offer my knowledge to others.

    I've worked with children, all the way up to adults. I've worked with beginner all the way up to advanced touring musicians. 

    As cheesy as it may sound, every day that I'm doing music related work whether it's my own music or helping others achieve their goals, puts me in a great mood.

    Make sure that the instructor is fully aware of your goals, and is capable of helping you reach them. Be cautious of guitar chains that follow the same ciriculum for all students and only want your money.

    To ask themselves what it is they want to achieve.
