BIO
Born in Celadna, Czech Republic. After the graduation from high school in Novy Jicin, I started to study acoustic guitar in which I pursued classical and Latin music at the Jaroslav Jezek Conservatory in Prague, Czech Republic (www.kjj.cz) in the class of Mr. Vilem Matausch, Mr. Milan Tesar and Mrs. Jaromira Jezkova. Then I was admitted to a professional diploma programme at the same Conservatory to study electric guitar where I studied jazz in the class of Mr. Lubomir Kocvara. I also invited lessons of rock guitar (Mr. Petr Bierhanzel). Alongside the guitar, I was taking voice lessons (Mr. Eduard Klezla) and piano lessons with Mrs. Zuzana Novakova.

At Berklee, I studied guitar with Jon Damian, Rick Peckham, Freddie Bryant, Jon Wheatley, Salvatore DiFusco, Bret Willmott, John Baboian, Kimberley Perlak, David Tronzo and others. During my studies at Berklee College of Music, every semester I earned placement at Dean’s List and also received John LaPorta Award for outstanding achievement in my major – Guitar Performance.
