I am a very versatile musician here to help you learn what you want to learn. I have over five years of teaching experience on multiple instruments, in multiple styles with multiple age ranges. I often try to use the students' interests in and outside of music to incorporate the musical fundamentals such as (sight) reading sheet music, chord diagrams, tablature, playing by ear and even music theory/ear training but still make it fun, engaging and interesting. I am here to take your skills and your performance to the next level. Sign up for some lessons with me to take your playing from elementary to ELECTRIFYING!
