Introduction

Teaching guitar is my passion. I believe that everyone has a musical potential and I love helping people develop their musicality and I firmly believe that the saying "if you give a person a fish, you feed them for a day. But if you teach someone to fish, you feed them for a lifetime." I put every part of me into finding the best way for my students to learn. I have over eight years experience teaching guitar in a variety of styles including rock, blues, finger-style, and classical guitar.

Brad is amazing! As a person he is easy to talk to and as a teacher he is very patient and incredibly clear. He is very knowledgeable and actively encourages students to explore and go beyond what is written in the sheet music. He always makes sure that lessons are going at a comfortable pace, and that pieces are enjoyable to listen to and learn. He is quick to point out things I need to fix, and he makes theory and techniques easy to understand and remember. I greatly appreciated his lessons and his understanding of my crazy schedule. :)
