| My Musical Inspirations |
My earliest inspiration came from Richie Sambora of Bon Jovi. His melodic lead playing, phrasing, and expressive style pushed me straight into serious guitar work and defined my direction as a lead guitarist. From there, I grew through rock and metal influences like Slash, John Petrucci, Steve Vai, and classic bands that shaped my foundation—Bon Jovi, Guns N’ Roses, Metallica, Dire Straits, Pink Floyd, Led Zeppelin, and Scorpions.
I also absorbed the energy and groove of Red Hot Chili Peppers and the timeless songwriting and guitar-driven style of Bryan Adams. These artists deeply shaped my tone, technique, and musical sensibility.
Together, these influences drive the performance-oriented, rock-focused teaching approach I bring to every student.
