About Me

I began playing bass guitar at the age of 12. Over the years, I developed his skills further, playing in churches, in-school concert band, and nursing home recreation programs. I am an experienced performer and have played at numerous NYC venues, including Rockefeller Center, Nublu, Blank Bamboo, and C'mon Everybody, and with acts such as THAThousepartyTHO, Producer Mondays, and Lowhency Pierre. Though I can teach many different genres of music, my personal favorites are Jazz, Funk, R&B, Alt-R&B, Progressive Metal, Indie rock, and Neo-soul, which had a great influence on his style of playing. I believe that music innovates and inspires creativity from an honest place. I love teaching music, as it allows others to discover their own truth and develop the tools to create from it. Whether you are a beginner or a seasoned professional, I can help you expand and enhance your playing. I am excited to help you reach your musical goals. Sign up now to schedule a virtual lesson!
