I love the fact that my teaching uplifts the hearts of my students, both scholastic and music students, to help them reach their maximum potential through sharing the gift and joy of music and mentoring.
Not only will they be able to engage with a positive older figure in their lives, but they will be able to play by themselves, write their own music, and teach their own students if they wish to do so. This is what life is about, each one/teach one, and passing the baton down.

Frequently asked questions
What is your typical process for working with a new student?
I ask them their favorite type/types of music, genres, favorite chords.
Most importantly and intimately, why they picked up the guitar and what drives them and inspires them about the guitar. I make it a point to be especially personable and encouraging for young students who have the passion that I wan't to see sprout and flourish into great skill to play anything that they desire.
