Guitar Instruction
Study the guitar, your way.
Whether you want to sit in the room together, meet over a screen, or learn on your own clock, there's a path here. Lessons are built around fingerstyle technique, jazz harmony, and the deep, multicultural roots of American music — tailored to where you are and where you want to go.
In Person
One on one, in the room
Face-to-face lessons in the Greater Boston area. Nothing replaces being in the same room for hand position, tone production, and the subtle physical feedback that's hard to catch through a screen. Ideal for serious technical work, ensemble feel, and building real momentum.
