Along with performing, I teach private guitar lessons at my home studio in Lackawanna, NY, small classes at the Orchard Park Music School and guitar workshops at Sessions Sound Stage in Buffalo NY. My musical skills have expanded to include guitar repair and original music recording production. I have recently formed the Ridge Trail Records, to produce, promote and service the Western New York singer/ songwriter community. A career in music takes a lot of dedication, perseverance, hard work, and a little good luck. I have had many wonderful moments on stage with some amazingly talented musicians.
