About

Welcome to my home page. I’ve been active in the  Northern California music scene as bandleader, sideman, and guitar instructor since moving to the Bay Area from Los Angeles in the early nineties. I love to combine Jazz, Blues, and Latin influences to create a unique and personal sound. I studied jazz at the Dick Grove School of Music in Los Angeles and the California Jazz Conservatory in Berkeley (formerly the Jazz School). I also studied privately with Warren Nunes, Jeff Massanari, and Rick Vandivier.

My active projects include:

  • Chord Fusion – a guitar instruction app, see: FusionHarmony.com
  • The Half Moon Band – see: The Half Moon Band
  • Private or group guitar instruction, contact me for rates and available dates
