About

***Please note that in-person lessons are available only for NYC residents. However, online lessons are available for anyone.***

I regularly perform in the NYC and Australian jazz scenes in bands such as Crypsis Trio, Dropbear Lodge, and Brooklyn Qawaali Party, and I have 20 years of experience teaching students of all levels. ​No matter the students' level, my focus is not just on WHAT to play on the guitar; I emphasize a step-by-step process regarding HOW to practice the concept, deconstruct the core issue, and ultimately experience a lifetime of joy that music brings. ​

Beginner students will immediately learn songs from their favorite artists while developing the correct fundamentals. Experienced students will be assisted in refining their existing techniques, understanding, and practices while still being challenged to develop new skills and update their goals. ​

Topics include:

-Technique/Chops/Picking/Lead guitar/'Shred'...

-Chords/Songs/Riffs/Strumming/Rhythm...

-Playing genres (jazz, rock, pop, classical, metal)/blending them/improvisation...

- Scales/Fretboard navigation/Reading music...

- Theory/Composition/Songwriting/History...

- Development of practice routines/performing and recording... ​

I am thankful to have studied and performed with some of the world's most elite musicians. My study with late jazz greats John Abercrombie and Vic Juris is an experience I emulate when helping others. Forging connections with students and assisting in their musical development is the most rewarding aspect of my work.

I look forward to hearing from you!
