Berklee-trained guitarist turned elite performance coach & creator of ShredFest.
Berklee-trained guitarist turned elite performance coach & creator of ShredFest.
I spent years doing what most guitarists do... obsessing over speed, grinding exercises, copying players I admired, and still feeling like something was missing.
Even after studying at Berklee and working professionally, I saw the same pattern everywhere: talented players stuck at the same level for years, frustrated, overwhelmed, and secretly doubting if they’d ever become the guitarist they imagined.
So I built the ShredFest Academy.
A performance-driven training system designed to develop real musicians, not just fast fingers.
No gimmicks. No fluff. No generic “practice harder” advice.
Today, I mentor serious players around the world who want more than licks and theory, they want mastery, identity, and a guitar life that actually feels aligned with who they are.
