Music remains the foundation of my work. Decades of touring as a blues guitarist allowed me to connect with audiences. Teaching guitar lessons has given me the opportunity to connect one-on-one with students. Through the combined experiences of performance and teaching, I have come to understand the deep power music holds to transform lives.
Discovering the handpan opened new pathways for creative expression—performing in healing spaces has shaped how I listen, how I share music, and how I teach. As I’ve learned to play, it has quietly enhanced my ability to guide others.
With each new year, a new chapter begins. I’m excited to share that I’ve launched a new website—one that reflects the full scope of what I offer. This relaunch isn’t a reinvention; it’s a clarification.
After years of growth, transition, and reflection—both personal and creative—this felt like the right moment to bring everything into clearer focus. From rock ’n’ roll stages to healing spaces, from teaching guitar lessons to offering handpan discovery sessions, sound baths, and guided writing programs, each part of my work is connected by a single thread: a desire to grow as an artist and to build meaningful connection within communities.
The New Website
The updated site reflects what has become unmistakably clear over time. Guitar lessons remain at the core of my work, offered both in person and online, while wellness programs and live performance extend naturally from that foundation.
You’ll find guitar lessons, handpan discovery sessions, sound bath offerings, writing, and performance woven together—not as separate identities, but as different expressions of the same lifelong devotion to music and the healing arts.
You’re invited to explore at your own pace and see what resonates.
A New Daily Creative Journey (Heart of the Post)
Beginning January 1, I’m committing to a year-long creative offering that feels both deeply personal and quietly ambitious:
Daily photos on Instagram
Weekly blog posts centered on a shared theme
Monthly newsletters
Monthly Substack essays
This isn’t about content or output. It’s about telling my story in small, honest moments—a life shaped by music, teaching, loss, healing, and continued evolution.
Some reflections will come from decades on the road as a touring guitarist and performer. Others will emerge from teaching, from caring for my mother after the loss of my father, from learning the handpan, or from what it means to stay present in this season of life. Together, they form a living archive—one day at a time.
There’s no pressure to follow everything. This is an open invitation to walk alongside me in whatever way feels right.
How My Work Fits Together Now
At its heart, my work continues to be about connection through music.
Guitar lessons are my foundation and primary offering
Wellness programs—including handpan, sound baths, and discovery sessions—support reflection and healing
Live performance continues in select, meaningful settings
These aren’t separate paths. They’re interconnected expressions of the same work, shaped by decades of experience and an ongoing willingness to listen and grow.
Why I’m Doing This Now
For much of my life, creativity has moved in cycles—intense periods of output followed by quieter seasons of listening and integration. What I’ve learned is that what sustains me most isn’t urgency, but consistency. Showing up regularly, with intention, allows the deeper work to unfold.
This daily, weekly, and monthly structure creates space—space to notice what’s emerging rather than forcing outcomes. It also supports how I teach guitar, offer healing music, and perform. Instead of separating these parts of my life, this practice weaves them together.
Guitar lessons remain central to everything I offer. Teaching allows me to share music in a grounded, personal way—helping students build skill, confidence, and a meaningful relationship with their instrument. That stability makes room for everything else to grow.
Closing
Thank you for being here—whether you’ve followed my work for decades or are just discovering it now. This new website and this new project mark a continuation, not a departure. My journey continues to evolve, and I’m grateful to share the road ahead with you.
