Passionate musician armed with a degree in Music from CSUSM and a decade of diverse musical experiences in the vibrant scene of San Diego. My musical journey began with a hunger for exploration.

This journey has shaped my playing style and fueled my desire to share the magic of music with others. With six years of teaching, I'm here to guide you through the beautiful world of music. Whether you're picking up an instrument for the first time or seeking to elevate your skills, we'll embark on a musical adventure tailored to your aspirations. Join me, and let's make music that resonates with your soul!

I'm not your typical music educator; my alias might be the best-kept secret in the musical realm. While no formal institution may recognize me, those in the know have often wondered if I'd kindly lower my instrument's volume. I firmly believe that consistency matters, even if no official guitar student has graced my roster. An empty schedule allows me to dedicate undivided attention to those seeking an unconventional, self-taught approach to music. Let's embark on a unique journey together, where your musical aspirations take center stage!
