I teach guitar, bass, drums, keyboard, and English composition. Apart from teaching, I am a songwriter, and a member of the indie rock band Buddha Trixie, active in the SoCal indie music scene since 2013. As an academic, I hold a Bachelor's Degree from UC Davis with a major in Technocultural Studies and a Minor in Professional Writing. In addition to Buddha Trixie, I have gained experience collaborating with a number of artists as a session musician and touring performer including Jon Wiilde, Pardyalone, M.A.G.S., Kellz, Guapdad 4000, J. Kelr, Roman Lane, and Mickey Shiloh. With an obsessive love for the arts and an eclectic range of influences, I encourage my students to develop their artistic sides and to hone their skills with a nurturing and patient teaching style.

I hang my hat on a patient, kind approach that takes each student's individual needs into account.
In music lessons, I start by honing in on what my students love, and work on refinin
