Jay was the lead guitarist in a rock band "The Roadrunners" during the 1960's. The band performed at the NYS Pavilion on the World's Fair in Queens, NY. I finished my "daytime" career as a high school chemistry/aviation teacher. During that time I earned a Master's Degree in Education. For 20 plus years i taught guitar/banjo and ukulele from a music studio in my NJ home. Music has been a life companion that connects me to different times, places, and cultures. The goal of my teaching has always been to help my students achieve their musical dreams.
