Hopefully, this is ok to post here..-brand new to Neighbourly!

I've recently returned home to Palmerston from Berlin (covid reasons) where I was playing as a professional musician and am available for some students.

I have a Bachelor of Music from the Jazz school in Wellington, further study in electronic music, record engineering and composing at Vicotria and I have been producing, composing, and gigging for about ten years in Wellington, Melbourne and Berlin.

I teach Jazz, Folk, Neo-soul, Blues and Rock guitar predominately, and am proficient at Ableton and Logic primarily but can operate and teach any DAW.
