About
I have helped hundreds of students over my last 13 years of teaching to become more knowledgeable and engaged in music. I have been a consultant for teachers and lesson academies in Nebraska, Colorado, and Illinois for my unique solutions to creating more engaging and rewarding lessons. I have performed professionally in nearly every kind of ensemble and style; cover bands, jazz bands, orchestras, choirs, and as a soloist. I bring a diverse understanding of music, with the character and experience of a master teacher. If you want to more quickly meet your own goals, let me guide you.

FAQs
What should the customer know about your pricing (e.g., discounts, fees)?
$40 per hour which can be divided or utilized in various ways. I have many adult students whom do an $80 2 hour lesson every other week, while I do weekly 30 minute lessons for $20 a piece. I am so confident in students coming back for lessons, that I do not force students to pay for months at a time.
What is your typical process for working with a new customer?
The process is a negotiation. Goals need to be established by the client and it is my responsibility to set smaller milestones and tasks to help them meet their ultimate goal. The milestones generally use more canonical lesson tasks; fretboard harmonization, reading staff, performing simpler songs by ear, scales and arpeggio rudiments, and any other things to help nurture the required skills.
What education and/or training do you have that relates to your work?
I have a Bachelors and Masters degree in Guitar Performance, but more importantly have professional experiences throughout playing and teaching that are wider spread than most. When a player receives all of their money from one kind of work, they become biased towards that because it serves as a definition of success. Having been paid for by work in bands, solo, orchestras, choir accompaniment, jazz combos, etc. I have a wider definition of what can make a student successful.
