Open Sauce Guitar

I'm a pro guitarist and qualified music teacher with extensive experience as a soloist, accompanist, and band member across various genres including Rock, Soul, Funk, Folk, Latin, Reggae, Gypsy Jazz, Classical, and more.

I have a Degree in Music Education, Grade 8 Electric Guitar, Grade 8 Classical Guitar, and an Audio Engineering Diploma.

I've travelled the world researching world music genres, especially in Latin America. I attended the School of Mariachi in Guadalajara, Mexico and performed with Cuban band, Los Jubilados del Caribe, in Santiago de Cuba.

I provide high-quality online lessons that can rival any in person session with a variety of state-of-the-art digital resources and hi-speed, low-latency internet.
