Specialties
I help guitarists who want to build their skills and confidence so they can play the way they want to. I specialize in seeing what inspires you, figuring out how you learn, and helping you improve. Beginners I can help you learn to play your favorite songs, show you quick tips to make playing easier, and help you get through the tough spots to make practice fun. More Experienced Players I can help you add nuance and flash to your playing, making your songs more musical. I can show you how to use scales and theory to jam or write great songs. I can also help you with technique to improve your speed and tone while making playing easier. Performers I can help you get THAT SOUND. I can show you how to build confidence and stage presence. I can assist you in taking what you already know to make your own music out of it and I can help you refine your songs and solos, making them the best they can be.
