My journey with the guitar began at 8, launching into private lessons soon after. Auditioning for and attending the Orange County School of the Arts Guitar program from 7th to 12th grade expanded my musical horizons, training me in classical, flamenco, jazz, and studio engineering using Logic Pro X and Protools. Beyond school performances at renowned venues like Disneyland, House of Blues, and jazz festivals, I delved into the LA punk scene and various local gigs. With four years of teaching experience at Guitar Center, I've instructed students of all ages and levels, embracing diverse styles and adapting to group dynamics. Teaching extends beyond the norm for me; I've worked with children and adults with special needs, aiming to make music accessible and enjoyable for everyone. With a passion for playing and teaching, music has been a constant and significant part of my life, shaping my journey into a harmonious blend of artistic exploration and education.

As a Mexican American born and raised in Alhambra, California, I have deep roots in this vibrant community. I attended Alhambra High, ELA College, and Cal State LA, where my initial sporting journey began with baseball. However, it was Tiger Woods who inspired my shift to golf, a decision that has taken me around the world. I've played on 342 different courses globally and relish the opportunity to teach this fantastic game to players of all levels. Fluent in both English and Spanish, I'm always ready to offer lessons, play a round, or practice at the range. With a current handicap of 5.9 with the SCGA, I'm dedicated to both improving my game and helping others do the same.
