Boutique coaching means your experience is completely personalized, not a one-size-fits-all music lesson. Each session is tailored to your goals, learning style, and pace so you can make meaningful progress in every area of your playing. You’ll receive the same level of intentional support and attention to detail that you’d find in a private mentorship, not a typical music class.

My coaching is personalized, collaborative, and built around your goals. Every new client starts with a skills assessment and a conversation about musical taste, followed by a custom playlist to guide our work. This helps us create a clear, motivating path toward the kind of musician you want to become.

We begin with the fun, rewarding parts of playing so you can build confidence and momentum. Concepts like theory, scales, and ear training are introduced only when they’re most relevant, which makes them easier to understand and apply. I love the “nerdy” side of music, but I always pace it in a way that supports your growth rather than overwhelming you.

Most of our work happens through songs and techniques that matter to you. Some goals take several weeks on one song, while others move quickly across multiple pieces. If you ever feel unsure, I’m always ready with suggestions. Coaching with me is a partnership focused on clarity, expression, and helping you enjoy your music more fully.

I specialize in coaching adult musicians and serious teens who are ready to take their playing to the next level. While I’ve taught younger students in the past, my current focus is on helping more mature learners refine their skills, grow in confidence, and play with greater musical expression.

You will receive an email with a secure payment link via Wave. You can use Debit, Credit or even ACH payment options. ACH is preferred.

We will establish recurring payments, if applicable, which can be canceled at anytime. No reimbursements will be given, so be sure to cancel your payments before starting a new month (4 session block) of sessions.

Since I am a small business, please reach out for a conversation to better understand the details of cancelation or any requested accommodations. The sooner we can chat about things, the better for both of us!

Both! I meet with clients in Littleton, CO at the office of the Church where I am currently employed as the staff Worship Minister.
However, coaching sessions are also offered virtually, allowing you to learn from the comfort of your own home while receiving real-time feedback and guidance.
This allows for the ability to not miss a session, even if the Colorado Winter gets too dangerous to drive into, as well as the ability to work with clients out of town/state.

Every musician’s journey is unique, but most clients work with me for about three to six months to achieve significant progress. In the first 12 weeks, we’ll focus on building confidence and consistent technique. From there, we’ll deepen your expression, performance skills, and musical fluency so you can play with ease and joy.

The most important thing you’ll need is your guitar.
Additionally, I recommend having a chromatic tuner, capo, some picks (medium or hard), a folder to hold loose papers.
If we are meeting virtually, you will also need a reliable internet connection and a quiet space where you can play comfortably.
You can visit my Amazon storefront for some specific product recommendations.

Sessions can be rescheduled with at least 24 hours notice.
Cancellations with less notice or missed appointments are non-refundable, since your time slot is reserved exclusively for you. I value flexibility, but also consistency as it is part of what helps you make steady progress.

You’re welcome to start with a single session, but I recommend beginning with a four-week commitment to experience real momentum and measurable progress. Coaching is most effective when you have time to apply new concepts and see your playing evolve from week to week.
Because sessions are billed monthly, it’s a low-risk way to try the process while giving yourself a genuine opportunity to grow.
For those who prefer a one-time option, Power Sessions are available as focused deep dives, but most clients find the ongoing weekly coaching to be the most rewarding and transformative.
If you’re unsure whether my coaching is right for you, I offer a free 15-minute Discovery Call where we can talk through your goals and determine if this would be a good fit before you commit.
