Music has been at the core of my development as a person. It has taught me discipline, confidence, patience, and more. Above all else it has taught me the joy that can be found in honing an art form that holds so much emotion. My goal as an educator is to introduce the joy that can be found in music, and to help students find and hone their unique musical voice. I teach my students how to build the mental and physical dexterity required to effectively use their instrument as a way to express themselves through music.
I am currently enrolled in the Bachelor of Music program at MacEwan University, majoring in music composition. I have studied guitar privately with many teachers since I was eight years old, and continue to take private lessons to further my education. I have experience with a wide variety of styles including Jazz, Blues, Rock, and Classical music. I have been performing professionally since I was 16 years old in multiple rock bands as well as other ensembles.
I began studying guitar at eight years old. Since that time I’ve studied with dozens of teachers, and have developed my skills beyond guitar and found interest in a multitude of musical fields of study. I have studied jazz with some of the finest jazz musicians in Canada. I have developed my skills as a rock musician through years of gigging Edmontons rock scene. More recently, I have developed my skills as an Oud player, and have studied the intricacies of Middle Eastern and North African music with Doctor of Ethnomusicology, Ahmed Al-badr. All of these performance studies have also heavily influenced my work as a composer.
