About
A current performing and self releasing recording artist. Music and the arts are my passion, starting from a kid playing air/tennis guitar to studying music at Musicians Institute and receiving a Bachelors in Guitar Performance from the University of Hawaii. I can help you learn your favorite song on the guitar, write and compose your own tune, and even record it. Performing and sharing your joy with others is always part of my curriculum. I have experience teaching and helping beginning musicians to ones that are already on their musical journey. Make a joyful noise!
Creating art through sound and the joy of listening and playing music.
