ABOUT

I have 3 degrees in Music from the University of New Mexico. My degrees are in theory & composition, music education and a master's degree in comp. I teach private guitar lessons and guitar clubs in Albuquerque area as well as bass guitar & piano lessons. I perform as a one-man-band for various functions and have played in the pit orchestra/bands for 45 musicals. I have written and recorded over 200 original songs and produce other singer-songwriters. I have recently been sitting with some local bands because I can learn the music quickly. I read music , score and improvise in all styles!
