Classical Guitarist and Music teacher

I’m in love with the Classical guitar as much, if not more, than I am into Jazz.  I’m also crazy for Latin American music.  I’ve been playing a lot more Brazilian music in recent years and can’t get enough of it!  I’m very lucky to have had the opportunity to pursue such diverse styles in the same career.
