Why Choose Us

Our Story

Born into a musical family and following in the footsteps of my father, a guitar teacher and instrument repair technician, I’ve always been surrounded by the rhythms and melodies that define my life. Holding a degree in Psychology and Electronic Music and with a graduate-level understanding of music theory, my journey has led me to release four studio albums and embrace the joy of founding a school. I offer lessons in guitar, bass, ukulele, banjo, piano, drums, and more, blending creativity with the discipline of music theory. To me, music is more than just notes on a page; it’s medicine for the soul, a universal language that I’m passionate about sharing with students of all ages and levels.
