Hi, I’m Daniel. I started playing guitar and ukulele in 2014, and over the years, I’ve had the opportunity to perform at festivals, on recordings, and even in musicals. What began as a hobby quickly became a true passion. I studied with a private instructor for 12 years, whose dedication and love for music had a huge impact on me. At the same time, I spent a lot of time teaching myself and exploring music on my own, which helped shape my style and understanding of the instruments. I’m currently at university full-time studying Engineering, but music remains a big part of my life. In all these years, I’ve never practised because I had to, only because I wanted to. That’s something my teacher instilled in me, and I now hope to pass it on to my students. One of the most beautiful things about the guitar is that you can start making music from the moment you pick it up, no matter your age or experience. My goal is to help others discover that same enjoyment and love for playing.
