I've been playing the guitar for 25 years and teaching since 2008. I have qualifications, including a BA (Hons) in Professional Musicianship, and I'm a member of music organizations. During my degree, I learned from famous guitarists like Guthrie Govan and attended masterclasses with Tommy Emmanuel and Mark Knopfler. I've performed with various bands and groups at different venues and festivals in the UK. Besides guitar and ukulele, I also enjoy playing banjo, drums, piano, and I'm learning the saxophone. My musical influences include The Beatles, Queen, Nile Rodgers, The Zac Brown Band, John Frusciante, and John Mayer.
