I have had the honor of playing for - and learning from - some pretty incredible musicians, each of whom has helped me to bring out the beauty and life in a given piece of classical guitar music from my repertoire.
I have auditioned for and won the opportunity to perform in master classes with some of the most incredible guitar players alive today. I most cherish participating in the following formal audition-based master classes:
Berta Rojas: 2021 and 2024 Lauring Guitar Master Class at the JCC Kaplan Thurnauer School of Music
Rene Izquierdo: 2025 Master Class at the Connecticut Guitar Guild
Sergio Assad: 2026 Lauring Guitar Master Class at the JCC Kaplan Thurnauer School of Music
I also worked with a handful of virtuoso guitar players at Rene Izquierdo’s Camino Artes International Workshop in July 2026. Each was a true master and what they taught me has stuck with me. Teachers that I am particularly proud of working with at the workshop:
