My journey with the guitar began at the tender age of 5 in the quaint town of New Ipswich, New Hampshire. From local bands to writing my own material, I explored genres ranging from Acoustic Americana to Heavy Metal throughout high school in Jaffrey. Venturing into recording with projects like "Liquid" and "Arriving," I fine-tuned my lead vocalist and acoustic guitarist skills at Sound Design Studios in Brattleboro, VT, alongside Justin Case. Having graced venues across the USA and collaborated with music giants, I'm putting the finishing touches on my 21st album, with plans for a new release soon. Now calling Boston, MA, home, my guitar journey unfolds in the heart of the city's vibrant music scene.

"Aaron Lehtonen has been very influential in my musical journey. He has been very informative in his teaching techniques and has helped me with my playing and learning to play the music I wanted. Over the years, he has encouraged me to keep going, has been easy-going, and has understood my need to keep improving and honing my particular style. I would encourage anyone to accept Aaron as your teacher if you would like someone who has knowledge in many different genres and will work hard to help you in your playing.
