Music/Guitar Teacher
Jan, 2016 - PresentPrivate teaching
I can’t separate my life experience from music. I grew up hearing my parents perform, and from an early age found songwriting to be my principle form of expression. Songwriting also enables me to understand my experiences in a more intuitive way. My teaching is tied to my experience as a performer and songwriter, in that the central element of all these things is a shared experience. In performing, I experience the power the present moment has through the connection made with the audience Through my collaborations, I’m able to connect with other artist’s forms of expression. While teaching, I strive to inspire my students to appreciate how amazing music is for understanding life and for relating with others. Lastly, music has given me a way to be involved in other artistic mediums. My projects have included writing music for a play at the Provincetown Tennessee Williams Theater Festival, writing music for dance at the Rubin Museum in NY, and writing music for an award winning Argentinian documentary. I’ve taught music for three years and incorporate my many years of studying different styles such as Argentinian Folklore, Tango, Blues, Samba, Country, RnB and Pop into my teaching.
