    Guitar Center La Mesa 8825 Murray Drive La Mesa, CA
    Born and raised in the Bay Area, I learned to play by watching people like Santana, Joe Satriani, and Kirk Hammett and honed my skills by meticulously deciphering the tablature written in my stacks of old, well-used guitar magazines. As a primarily Rock/Blues guitarist, I sharpened my music theory and sight-reading skills while pursuing a degree from Musician's Institute in Hollywood, CA. After graduating from MI, I rose from the trenches of Los Angeles, moved back to the Bay Area, and began providing freelance lessons, gigging and recording with my band "Dollar Short." With them, I performed hundreds of shows around the Bay, refining my musicianship along the way. In early 2022, I began teaching and providing music lessons full-time, teaching hundreds of students in both individual and group environments and helping them grow and progress through their musical journeys.
