Born in New Hampshire, USA, I have been playing guitar for 13 years and have been teaching for 11. I received my Bachelor's in Economics and minor in Music with a focus in jazz studies from the University of Rochester and The Eastman School of Music. Currently, I teach guitar students of all ages and musical interests. With classes broken up into two parts, theory and learning songs, I ensure that every student receives important knowledge not only about guitar, but music itself. By doing so I am able to tie in the practical applications of music theory to my student's favorite songs for a more in depth learning experience.
