My journey in the musical circus began alongside John Eddie in 1981, and since then, it's been a whirlwind of creativity and collaboration. From recording with Columbia and Electra in the late '80s and early '90s to crafting songs that have earned acclaim at the CMA's and landed on albums by Brantley Gilbert, Miranda Lambert, and more, the ride has been unforgettable. Alongside these milestones, I've had the privilege of working with icons like Bryan Adams, Kid Rock, and Sammy Hagar, among others. Currently, you can catch me jamming with 40 North, a beloved country band lighting up the tri-state area. Let's keep the music playing!

I picked up the guitar after hearing Blink-182 live and knew instantly it was what I wanted to do. Since then, I’ve written well over 100 songs and played my way through styles ranging from rock ’n’ roll and metal to pop, punk, and blues. What I love most about teaching is seeing that moment when everything clicks and the guitar becomes more than just practice, it becomes passion. My goal is to make learning feel easy, so every student leaves not just with skills, but with a love for the instrument.
"I grew up around music, my dad played but I felt weird asking him to teach… he’s way too strict. Found Mitch and he was very pleasing to work with. I can now play and I know all the chords and some scales. He gives a lot of homework and wants you to practice. He can be strict but he knows what he’s doing.

My journey with music began at the age of 6, joining a children's choir. By the age of 8, I delved into piano lessons, the violin at 9 and the trombone at 10. After a diverse exploration of instruments, I now stand proficient on the piano, electric/acoustic bass, and guitar. Post my service in the U.S. Army, I returned to school as a music/audio production major, setting the stage for a multifaceted career. Beginning my teaching odyssey at Milestones in Music, I honed my skills as an independent contractor, refining my curriculum through my affiliation with the National Association for Music Education (NAfME). As a former student member of the Grammy U Recording Academy, I've had the privilege of working with and learning from many musicians. I lead the band at Montco Bible Fellowship and serve as a recording, mixing/mastering, and live FOH engineer. Additionally, my role as a music producer spans collaborations with local and out-of-state artists. My love for learning extends to exploring new instruments and music technologies, and I am dedicated to passing on this love for music to the next generation. Join me on this harmonious journey where passion and knowledge coexist seamlessly!
