"I have never been distracted by jazz, rock, popular or other steel string styles of guitar playing. My only studies, focus and passion is and has always been the Classical Guitar with traditional Flamenco that is based on solid Classical Guitar skill sets. I have over 25 years of Classical Guitar teaching experience, with a proven track record of training aspiring beginners through advanced level students to accomplish all core competencies and goals, while maintaining the student's enthusiasm and confidence to achieve the highest levels of guitar playing ability. I am a third generation classical musician, classically trained since early childhood, I began Classical Guitar lessons at the age of 6, started Flamenco Guitar lessons in high school, and attended master classes at the Julliard School of Music.
