Hello & Welcome!

I’ve been passionate about music for as long as I can remember. As a child, I played accordion & alto sax. However, it was the guitar that ultimately captivated me right around the time that grunge rock entered the mainstream. Listening to bands like Nirvana and Pearl Jam opened the door to classic rock and decades of riffs and solos. I knew I had to play guitar! I’ve been playing and learning ever since. I now dedicate time to teaching others to do the same.
