He recently earned a dual Bachelor of Arts degree from California State University, Dominguez Hills—one in Music with an emphasis in Jazz Guitar Performance, and the other in Digital Media Arts with a focus on Music Technology. He also holds an Associate of Arts degree in Jazz Guitar Performance and Contemporary Media from El Camino College. Rob’s performance background is as dynamic as his teaching. He has recorded and toured across the U.S. with the progressive rock band Phavian, and has played with a wide range of Los Angeles-based bands in genres from rock to jazz.

He’s experienced in adapting lessons to suit different learning styles and student personalities—making him a great fit for beginners, intermediate players, and advanced musicians alike. |
