"“I studied guitar and music production with Josh for about 3 years during high school. He was great at highlighting my interests in our lessons, always keeping my goals first. During Covid restrictions, he quickly altered our zoom lessons to focusing on creating my own music which I found to be super inspiring and fun. I was able to accomplish a lot with Josh and he was always professional and great to work with”

I’m passionate about giving young players the tools they need to succeed on and off the field, and I take pride in helping them improve while enjoying every step of the journey.
