I believe learning music should be relaxed, flexible, fun, and focused. Learning songs I think is a great way to stay motivated, and consistently have a clear goal to work towards. Exercises I find work best when designed specifically to build the skill and experience that’s necessary to overcome a challenge in a particular song. I encourage students to focus on listening skills, broaden their theoretical knowledge, cultivate an organic approach to the instrument, and gradually aim to bridge the gap between musical ear and musical performance. Music is in my opinion a great way to exercise both creativity and logical detail oriented thinking in a fun, accessible environment.
My formal training was at Humber College in Toronto, where I completed a Bachelor of Music Degree with honours. Prior to that I'd studied guitar and piano privately for many years, as well as a summer program at Berklee College of Music on scholarship. I'm an active member of Nashville Songwriters Association, and a student of music production, mixing, and mastering.
Humber College - Greg Wells Music Scholarship for music production, Yamaha Music Scholarship for musicianship, Peter Harris Memorial Award for guitar.
Having had the opportunity to work with students and teachers from all ages and levels of experience, I’ve been fortunate to learn to constantly adapt my approach, stay inspired, and continue to be a student myself.
