Hello! My name is Jackson! I’m a musician, composer and educator from Brooklyn, NY. I studied jazz guitar at Berklee College of Music, along with later classical composition at the Mannes School of Music. A brief list of some of the teachers I have studied with include (in chronological order) Chris Biesterfeldt, Beyza Yazgan, Yotam Ishay and Timo Andres.
I have many years of teaching experience. Teaching both privately for many years and more recently at other local Brooklyn music schools such as Gowanus Music Club and Keys to Success.
I currently offer piano, guitar, bass, and ukulele lessons! My goal is not to make you or your child a good musician simply for the sake of being good at music. My goal is for my students to love music just as much as I do and to allow their own growing passion to naturally guide their development as musicians. If this sounds like a good fit, please reach out!
Feel free to check out some of my music!
