About
I'm a guitarist/composer with 21 years of experience. My musical development took place in a highly social environment. I started playing in bands when I was a freshman in high school. Some have ended up performing at major league venues like Slim's in San Francisco. While attending Diablo Valley College in 2005, I won the MACCC scholarship for one of my orchestral compositions. From 2010 to 2011 I worked for Ubisoft on the ROCKSMITH development team as a note tracker (transcriber, arranger and composer). After that job ended, I worked as talent/entertainment/session guitarist for studio recordings and live events (parties, corporate functions, festivals, art galleries, live marketing campaigns, etc.), arranged charts for different ensembles (string ensembles, big band, fake book charts, etc.), and composed original music for wedding ceremonies, in addition to teaching. I'm currently writing the manuscript for a guitar method book that focuses on building solid sight reading skills.
