I have played music for 20-years gigging, rehearsing, and teaching others. I graduated Lewis and Clark Community College within the music department, specializing in performance with guitar. There I learned how to play piano and the drums, creating music and understanding basic theory. I have since gone on to play with a number of musicians in many projects, and played with musicians in China as a fill-in gigging musicians for 2-years.Currently, I teach independently and with Guitar Center, as well as performing an array of genres with my main cover band, Porch Cafe, independently perform, or with my acoustic cover band. I write my own songs and learn many more in order to teach and perform for others.
