About me: I am reliable, trustworthy and a friendly individual. Passionate audio engineer seeking to better my knowledge and skills in the field by way of work + education. Musician whom enjoys learning, teaching, singing, playing and composing music - particularly on guitar. I feel that the greatest of teachers are those who love what it is that they teach, this is why I chose to specialize in music. I have been formally trained and music for me is a passion driven pursuit which I genuinely love and couldn’t possibly “learn enough” of. I enjoy talking about what is music and helping others understand different ways of thinking about music functionality. Similar to math there are multiple ways to find the answer you are looking for. Understanding music functionality or an instrument isn’t something which happens overnight. If you have the desire - don’t forget to put in the time or it may merely remain as just that; an interest. Wish you all the best on your journey.
