I've been playing guitar for over 35 years, and I'm still just as obsessed with it as I was when I first picked it up. These days, I split my time between fronting an all-original instrumental band—where I write everything we play—and melting faces in a cover band with classics like Eruption and Crazy Train. I’ve also spent years as a college professor, so I know a thing or two about how to teach complex ideas in a way that actually sticks.
I’m currently looking to take on just a few students—not a full roster, just the right people who are serious about improving their playing and their relationship with music. Whether you're trying to break out of a rut, understand theory without your eyes glazing over, or finally tackle that solo you've been dodging, I can help. I build custom lesson plans for each student, tailored to your goals, your pace, and your style.
If that sounds like for what you’re looking, you can sign up for private lessons through the paid tier on my Patreon. Or email me for more info. Let’s make some noise.
Whether you're brand new to the guitar or a more advanced player looking to sharpen your skills, online lessons make learning flexible and convenient — without compromising quality.

Every student is unique — that’s why I create custom lesson plans based on your goals, interests, and playing level. Whether you want to write songs, jam with others, master theory, or simply enjoy playing, I’ll help guide your growth and deepen your connection to music and the guitar.
