Bio

I’ve been playing bass guitar for 13 years, having recently graduated from Melbourne University ( Victorian College of the Arts) with a Bachelors of Music, Jazz and Improvisation.

Professionally I play in a range of groups, including running a corporate jazz trio, wedding and cover bands, Indi original music and experience in Musical Theatre orchestras.

I have been teacher for 3 years both privately and through a tuition school, with a range of age groups, skill levels and educational needs. I have experience taking students through any style or technical requirement, including slap, pick work, tapping or preparation for VCE performance exams.

I pride myself on maintaining a fun and engaging learning environment and keeping open and honest communication between myself and students. Personally, my goal is to share the joy that I find in exploring music with others through sharing my knowledge, and equipping my students with the skills play, compose and understand anything and everything that interests them.


Teaching Info

In my lessons I really enjoy building a strong theoretical and technical base to allow you to learn what you’re interested in. I endeavour to help my students explore what they want to and help them find satisfaction in their own musical experience, so I try to structure each and every lesson individually and tailor the content to what you personally find interesting and want to learn.
