About
With my help, you can surpass your expectations in guitar playing whether you're a beginner or a seasoned player. While chord charts, TABs, and videos on YouTube may provide some guidance, reaching your musical goals require working with a passionate and experienced instructor.I provide private lessons in the comfort of my students' homes, offices, and online through Zoom, Skype or FaceTime. While online lessons may not be ideal for some, they are still effective for most.
Here's a little bit about me: I graduated from Berklee College of Music in 2005 with a BFA in Guitar Performance. I was a finalist in Guitar Player Magazine's Superstar Competition in '08, nominated twice in the LA Music Awards, won the Malibu Music Awards, and was a finalist in the International Songwriting Competition and Mid Atlantic Songwriting Competition. I also won the Muse's Muse Editors Choice Award and was recognized by the US State Department for Bridging the Cultural Gap to Nepal. In addition, I am endorsed by Bogner Amplification, JAM Pedals, and GHS Strings.

An incredible educator, Chris has endeared himself to my 9-year-old with his enriching sessions. He employs a range of methodologies to instill in children an understanding and appreciation of music. Each class is a thrilling amalgamation of various activities, such as playing music, scrutinizing its distinct elements, sharing emotional reactions and feelings elicited, mastering sheet music, and even a fair share of playful jokes. Impressing upon his expertise in personalization, Chris imbues his students with a sense of pride.

Having felt stagnant for years, I'm delighted to have found Chris as my guitar instructor. As a skilled guitar player, he comprehends my ambition to improve, introduces theory to guide me, and ensures that I revel in the learning process while attaining my objectives. I strongly endorse Chris's guitar lessons, both in-person and via zoom, for individuals of all skill levels. Every week, I eagerly anticipate our session and sense progress with each passing week!

Chris is an amazing instructor who effortlessly incorporates the essential aspects of technique, music theory, and instrument proficiency. Due to his expertise, despite being a novice, I can now freely explore my musical creativity using the guitar as my playground. The learning experience is highly enjoyable and holistic. I highly recommend Chris as an instructor.

Thanks to Chris' expert guidance, I've made tremendous progress in just a few lessons. Struggling with complex theory and movements has always been a challenge for me during solo practice. However, Chris has a talent for breaking down concepts into terms that make sense to me.
What's more, Chris is always available to answer any questions I might have beyond our scheduled lessons. I feel comfortable reaching out to him at any time.
Thanks to the "Guitarmalade" tabs and sheets provided by Chris, I'm now ten times more confident when reading music. These resources are a valuable tool to support me during my solo practice sessions.
Working with Chris has instilled a sense of accountability in me. I'm eager and committed to sticking to warmups/drills and learning new songs on my own time. Beyond his professionalism, Chris has cultivated a fun, laid-back learning environment, making learning on one of the coolest, quirkiest instruments out there a true joy.

I consider myself fortunate to have such a great teacher as Chris. With minimal experience, he has given me the tools to progress quickly. I anticipate our lessons and make the effort to practice as often as possible. Chris is a passionate musician, evident through his weekly demonstrations of enjoyment in his craft. I am grateful for having found him.
