Travis Picking, Percussive, Walking Bass, and Free Arranging.

How is this different from YouTube tutorials?
YouTube tutorials teach you how to play one specific song. This course teaches you how to arrange any song yourself. Instead of following someone else's tabs, you'll learn the method behind the arrangement — so you can sit down with a melody you love and build your own version from scratch.
This course is built around clarity. Every lesson is designed to get the concept across as efficiently as possible — not production gimmicks, no fluff.

WHO AM I
FINGERSTYLE ON THE STREETS OF THE WORLD
For over a decade, I've performed as a street musician around the world — from Melbourne to Los Angeles, and across Europe. Those thousands of hours playing for real audiences, every single day, shaped everything I know about what makes an arrangement work.
EDUCATION
I graduated with top honors from the Rock Guitar Academy in Milan, then earned a summa cum laude degree in Popular Music from the Conservatorio Arrigo Boito — with a deep focus on composition, orchestration, and music production. Those skills still influence everything I arrange.
PROFESSIONAL WORK
I've performed as a solo fingerstyle guitarist across the U.S., Australia, and Europe, playing over 500 concerts. I've also worked as a session player, arranger, and producer on various recording projects.
TEACHING & PUBLICATIONS
I've been teaching guitar for over 15 years and have created several online courses focused on fingerstyle, performance, and arranging. This System is the distillation of everything I know about arranging for fingerstyle guitar.
