Over the past 30 years I have dedicated my life to guitar and songwriting. I have 20 years of teaching experience and am well versed in many different genres. In 2008 I graduated from Berklee College of Music, and since then I have studied with some of the best players out today, including, but not limited to, Julian Lage, Adam Levy (Norah Jones, Amos Lee), Rich Hinman (Sara Bareilles), and Tomo Fujita (John Mayer). 

As a songwriter I have put out two records and am currently working on my third. I've also toured extensively around the US and Europe playing my own music. 

As a musician, I have worked with producer James Brown (Nine Inch Nails, Foo Fighters), Charlie Hunter (John Mayer), Oliver Wood and Jano Rix of The Wood Brothers, and Viktor Krauss (Robert Plant, Llye Lovett) to name a few. I've also played on NYC's broadway for the Tony Award winning show "Oklahoma!".

My experience as a working musician and songwriter, paired with my teaching experience has provided me with a unique set of tools to making teaching a fun experience for every type of learner. I always want to know what the student wants to get out of studying with me so that I can tailor the curriculum towards what his/hers goals are.
