I have taught guitar, mandolin, ukulele and band for over 8 years, with a personalized approach to every student, following and helping to guide their own tastes in music from indie, to jazz, to folk, to classic rock. I hold a Grade 7 in Classical Guitar from the Royal Conservatory of Music, a diploma in Music Engineering and Production from Nimbus School of Recording Arts, and a Bachelors Degree in Jazz and Contemporary Guitar, with a minor in Composition and Jazz Piano from VCC. I taught privately at Deep Cove Music from 2015-2023, helping facilitate and instruct the popular ‘Bandfactory’ program for young bands. I currently teach out of a private space at 1859 Franklin Street, where I've enjoyed working with many of my students for years. As a musician, I have performed across Canada, the US, and England. I currently play around Vancouver in jazz groups and manage my own bands: Red Haven and instrumental group Tell Adeline.
