Hi there! Nice to meet ya – I’m Griffin! I live in Fort Wayne, IN, where I grew up. I went to college in Nashville, TN, and lived in Nashville for a few years after graduating before deciding to move back to my hometown with my beautiful wife Kelsey, and our oldest little Caspian. Since then, we recently had our littlest guy, Rhodes! We also have a standard poodle named Lucy!
I have always had a passion for music, but that passion really took off when I started playing guitar at 14 years old. I also started composing around the same time. While in high school I interned with the worship pastor at my church, and that love for music grew just that much more. By the time I reached college, I knew I wanted to major in – you guessed it – music! (Music theory and composition to be exact.) I graduated with my bachelor’s in 2021. Since then, I have discovered just how rewarding it is to teach others about music. Seeing my student’s talents and eagerness grow has been an enormous joy.
Aside from music, I enjoy spending time with my family, video games, and bike riding. I’d love the opportunity to get to know you. If you’re interested in taking lessons, custom compositions, or if you have any questions please choose the “contact me” button, and I will get back to you as soon as I can! Thank you for checking out my website!
