Hired on Thumbtack

Ananda arrived to the venue punctually and ready to provide high quality guitar playing. He was easy to talk to and responded to emails/messages promptly. During out Annual Fund Raising Gala, Ananda provided guitar music for the cocktail hour and eventually transitioned to playing guitar after the welcome message and keynote. He provided a calm, soothing environment with his guitar music and when he was away he would have something playing to keep the mood of the night going. Thank you, Ananda!

Ananda is great- super mellow during sessions, yet very involved and always willing to adapt to lesson wants/needs. Ananda also has an amazing ability to hold you accountable to better your guitar skills in a very professional manner. Taking lessons from Amanda is more like playing with a friend, rather than playing for an instructor
