The Stellar Guitarist

For all the newcomers (and those who’ve been here from the start), I thought it would be fun to reintroduce myself and share a few things you may not know about me. Thanks for being here– I’m so grateful for each of you! 💫
 
1. I’m a huge dog lover! 🐶 I recently became a dog mom to Bailey, my goofy boy who keeps me entertained and gives me 24/7 cuddles.

2. If I weren’t a guitar teacher, I’d probably be a therapist – I’m passionate about helping people. I've always been told I'm empathetic, and I truly feel that my calling is to support others.

3. I was born in South Africa but have been living in Dubai for the past 4 years! I love the warm weather and year-round sunshine. ☀️

4. I started learning the guitar when I was 7 years old – and it was love at first strum. I still vividly remember holding the guitar for the first time and feeling a deep sense of peace and connection.

5. I’ve taught students from all over the world! My online guitar courses have reached hundreds of students across the USA, Canada, UK, Germany, Spain, France, Australia, New Zealand, and beyond.

6. The first song I learned on guitar was "The Wise Man Built His House" – a children’s Christian song with just D and A chords. I remember playing it over and over again!

7. When I'm not teaching or playing guitar, I’m likely reading or painting. I love getting lost in a good historical fiction book or painting to an amazing playlist.

8. I can also play a bit of bass, piano, and drums. Back when I was a full-time music teacher in South Africa, I taught these instruments for 7 years! It was fun to mix things up.

9. Favorite food? Definitely pizza! 🍕 I could probably eat it every day and never get tired of it.

10. Fun fact: I’ve created over 200 song tutorials on my YouTube channel. Helping my followers learn to play their favourite songs is one of the best parts of my job!
 
Thank you for being part of my journey! 🙏🎸
