Guitar Center Pittsburgh 1020 Park Manor Blvd. Pittsburgh, PA
I began my interest in music with a guitar my father bought for me for Christmas. I would stay up for hours past my bed time trying to learn songs that I liked. At the beginning of high school I started to realize that each artist is different and I could create my own world with music. This realization led me to pursue music until it became a part of me. At first I strived to be a performing musician and travel the world so everyone could hear my style. In college I was taken back and humbled by watching my professors. They, in many ways, were able to positively affect their student's lives while also making a significant difference in the future of music. This was the path I was on the entire time and I'm very grateful to have had them to help me realize it.

Guitar Center Pittsburgh 1020 Park Manor Blvd. Pittsburgh, PA
Like most people, I come from humble beginnings...the Squire starter pack. As a young lad, I would spend my days playing along to the records of my youth: American Idiot and Hybrid Theory. After years of intense study, I would enroll in my Middle School’s prestigious Jazz Ensemble. There I would find my love of Black Art Music after being acquainted with the forgotten “Boogie-Woogie Bugle Boy” of Company B. Soon after I would attend Lincoln Park Performing Arts Charter School majoring in Music. During this time I would begin to hone my skills in Jazz as well as Pedagogy as I began taking a small number of private students at the time as well as began teaching at the after-school Henry Mancini Arts Academy. Following High School, I left Pittsburgh to get my Bachelor’s Degree from Bowling Green State University. After four years in the shed, I returned to Pittsburgh to continue my career as a pedagogue and sideman extraordinaire. Favorite Musician(s): Billy Strayhorn, Thad Jones, John Patitucci, Charles Mingus, Bela Fleck, Rhiannon Giddens, Simon Shaheen, Tinariwen, Talking Heads, Sleep, Mahavishnu Orchestra... First Song I Learned: "Sunshine Of Your Love"

Frequently Asked Questions
Each instructor customizes lessons to ensure you are learning what you like and having fun. Your instructor will start you slowly, introducing new concepts each week, plus give you exercises or easy songs to play to keep you learning at home.
Learning an instrument is an enriching and rewarding experience that creates lifelong benefits, including increased self-esteem and the boosting of memory. Additionally, benefits for school-age individuals can include improved coordination, the expanding of social skills, and higher scores in math, reading and language.
30-minute lessons allow young or beginner students to learn the basics of the instrument and start playing songs. 60-minute lessons are ideal for more advanced students looking to progress faster and focus on the finer points of technique.
This varies by age and the type of goals the student has set out to achieve. However, most new students usually spend 15–30 min. practicing daily, while advanced students can practice for an hour or more each day in between lessons.
Our flexible curriculum allows students of all skill levels to experience growth. We help create a foundational understanding of music theory through the style of music you want to play. Our instructors will work to understand your goals and passions, and make sure you are on the path to learning what you want at your own speed.
Our Lessons staff will work with you to determine your current skill level, stylistic interest and ambitions. We'll then help you choose an instructor who best suits your style and goals. If at any point, you'd like to change instructors, let us know. Our weekly monitoring of progress and wide-ranging curriculum means you can switch to any of our qualified instructors, or another instrument, without missing a beat.
