Advanced instruction in functional harmony, melodic analysis, and professional transcription methods to develop deep musical understanding and creative independence.

Professional experience in modern studio production, from beat creation and recording techniques to vocal production, tuning, arrangement, and mixing.

I enjoy teaching all age groups -what matters most to me is the passion and dedication a student shows.

I've worked with some of the industries biggest artists including Kali Uchis, Karol G, and Shaboozey amongst others.

A musician once told me that music should be the marriage of proficiency and sentiment. I believe that I encourage a balance of the two with my students. I encourage my students to learn the fundamentals, but only in name of developing their voice as a musician and helping them reach total freedom in expressing musical ideas.

I teach Production, Guitar, Bass, and Ukulele from all levels from beginner to advanced.

I love working with kids. I believe that the most successful musicians are able to keep their childlike spirit and curiosity. My music lessons were a bit rigid growing up, so I try and give my younger students the introduction to music that I would have found exciting. I find that if I'm able to make the lessons fun and engaging, this will lead to more interest and musical growth.
