I have 30 years experience in the music business both as a musician and as a producer. I love what I do and it shows. I take every project as my own and never lease anything that I am not personally proud of. I've spent years perfecting the guitar and bass and all the techniques and I feel it is my time to pass it on

I teach a mix of fretboard knowledge, theory, ear training, and musicianship to help students of all ages be ready for the stage, the campfire and everywhere in between. 

Besides playing live music several nights a week, I teach guitar in the Houston area to beginner, intermediate, and advanced guitarists who are looking to improve their skills and learn new songs the right way. You will learn the techniques you want to learn, and the songs that you enjoy, as well as the music theory behind those songs.

What makes my services stand out is my primary focus of getting the student to tap into their best, honest, and most meaningful form of expression; Something I call soul.
