I went to the Evergreen State College in Olympia Washington where I studied guitar in a variety of styles including classical, blues, and flamenco. I also studied music composition, theory, and recording. Teaching was a natural step because I am eager to share my passion for every aspect of music.
I have taught privately throughout my musical career and held positions assistant teaching at college. I have also taught at summer art and band camps. As for teaching my philosophy is to meet the student on his or her level with what motivates and excites them. From there it is easy to integrate theory and craft, which are exciting elements themselves.
I moved back to San Francisco in the summer of 2010 to be closer to my Sonoma County roots and to be once again be in the city I love. Here I have been working in film and audio production and actively performing and recording with several local bands and ensembles including a progressive folk duo, a jazz rock orchestra, and a film music ensemble.
I hope to eventually go on to study music at the graduate level and compose music for films and dance.
