Services Offered
Guitar Lessons
I’ve been playing guitar for over 25 years. It is my primary instrument and my first true love in the world of music. I have always enjoyed a wide variety of playing styles from rock to pop to country and pretty much everything in between. If there is a style or genre of music you want to learn I will always be happy to accommodate!
Piano Lessons
I began playing piano at the age of five on my grandmother’s baby grand. She insisted that I began taking proper lessons at the age of seven and the rest is history! I am happy to teach traditional site reading using a variety of method books or learn modern songs through music theory.
Vocal Lessons
I started singing from before I can remember. I always knew I had a passion in my voice and once I reached my teenage years I actively started developing it professionally. I studied under renowned vocal coach and theater performer Scott Gregory, and I still implement many of his techniques in my teaching style to this day. My goal is to help my students become the best vocalists they can be and explore the full extent of their abilities.
Drum Lessons
From the very beginning of my musical journey I’ve always been a rhythm-based musician. Although drums were not my first instrument they were almost an inevitability for me. I developed my drum technique under the instruction of local San Diego legend Franc Uberti. Drums also offer a unique entry point for the very young musician as early as age 4 because the instrument does not require fine motor skills. So if you were looking to start your child with a first instrument drums may be the perfect opportunity.
Music Production Lessons
I recieved a bachelors in Visual/Performing Arts degree in Music Production from Cal State San Marcos. I also own a Music Production company called Aftershow Productions where I’ve writen and prodced music for over 1000 episodes of television!
