Are you looking to study with a passionate + dedicated teacher?

I’ve worked as a musician and music instructor for over 15 years. Teaching is a core part of my creativity, and I believe there’s an invaluable feedback network formed by sharing and receiving. My teaching practice is based on nurturing self-expression, developing personal yet proficient technical approaches to your medium, and a well-rounded music education. I’m a dedicated instructor and deeply value helping others expand and achieve their vision.

As a teacher, I’ve led masterclasses at universities, designed educational programs at studios in NYC, taught numerous courses for other organizations, and mentored hundreds of students in my own programs.

My students are often adults or teenagers who want personalized instruction in the broad categories of electronic music, synthesis, and guitar. Many are discovering music making for the first time, pursuing a passion they’ve had since childhood, enthusiastic hobbyists, or practicing artists. My students have launched careers, integrated a new skillset into their profession, found a deeply fulfilling hobby, or even went on to study at academic institutions.

At the moment, I offer lessons, workshops, and full courses. See below for current offerings!

Lessons
