A DC area native, I was initially introduced to music, though somewhat reluctantly, through enrollment in the church choir at the age of four; however, I quickly grew to love it. I first experienced the guitar while living in Hong Kong when my third-grade teacher would play for them everyday at the end of school. I began taking lessons while living in Hong Kong and continued when I moved back to Washington DC. I have been playing the guitar for over 25 years and teaching for over 15. While my foundation is deeply rooted in the classical tradition, I enjoy teaching a variety of styles. My passion is to empower others to find their voice through the guitar, no matter their level of experience.

I'm a seasoned guitarist with over seven years of experience, honing my skills at James Madison University. I enjoyed gracing the stage with the school jazz band and other musical groups.

I've even had the opportunity to record with renowned artists in VA, adding to my diverse musical journey. Beyond the strings, I'm also passionate about vocal coaching. Together, we can explore the vast landscape of your voice and unlock its full potential. Whether you're a beginner or seeking to refine your skills, join me for a musical journey that blends skillful guitar play and harmonious vocals. Let's make music magic!
