About Justin

I began learning music as a child from my mother. I taught myself by immitation and trial and error. I took AP music theory in HS as well as Jazz band. In HS I got my first Sitar and had an obvious knack for it. I began listening to more ICM via recordings and concerts and rejected several grreat masters before finding my teacher.

I have been learning Sitar with Ustad Shujaat Khan for over 25 years. I have performed throughout Miami and Miami Beach, LA up to SF, NY and Beijing.

I recently moved to DC from Beijing where I was contiuing to learn from one of my favorite teachers. I was supporting myself there as a teacher and musician. I’m trained as a Doctor and preparing to take the NCCAOM liscensing exam. I am aware that the origin of the word for Doctor includes the meaning teacher.

I have been a teacher most of my life +30 years. I love helping people to learn the basics as well as to discover the deeper secrets of the sitar and music.
