         My musical journey began at age 7 when I told my parents I wanted to learn to play the piano.  Three years later, at age 10, I realized that it was the guitar that was my instrument. So, at the age of 10, I began my lessons with the great Paul Geller who understood my passion and helped me cultivate it. After several years of learning with Paul, I was fortunate to be accepted into the Rock Band and Choir programs at Marin School of the Arts (MSA) at Novato High School. During all four of my years at MSA, I was surrounded by other students and teachers who shared my passion for music and I was able to focus on and dive deeply into music theory, music composition and music production. Also, through the Jazz Choir and Concert Choir programs, I was able to study voice.  

After graduating from MSA, I attended California State University at Chico. During my years there, I was a music major focused on studying the Recording Arts and voice. I spent my last semester in Sweden where I studied Music Business and Industry as part of the Direct Exchange Study Abroad program. When I returned home, I began offering guitar lessons and writing and recording my own music.  I have also worked on various music projects and albums with and for other musicians.

I have now been playing guitar and writing music for over 16 years and I want to share my passion with you. 

Although we are currently living in extraordinary times, in the midst of this pandemic, we still need music in our lives!  So I am happy to offer online guitar lessons through platforms such as Zoom or Skype, as well as in person lessons.  This amazing technology allows me to teach you regardless of where you live, and allows you to enjoy learning to play the guitar in the comfort of your own home. Whether you prefer online or in person lessons, I promise to make the learning easy and fun, and I look forward to hearing from you soon!

"My 9 and 12 year olds took guitar lessons from Nicco. He let them choose their own songs and can convert any song to a kids beginner ability. He has a very calm, patient and positive manner, and after each lesson they both were so happy and proud."

Nicco Rocks!


My two boys, 9 and 11, both love having Nicco as their guitar teacher. Nicco is amazing because he really knows how to motivate the kids to play music. Sometimes I am completely surprised with the songs that they work on together. Nicco seems to be able to adapt any kind of music to guitar, from popular radio songs, to more eclectic new age pieces, or even video game theme songs. Anything my kids throw at him as a request to learn, he will figure out how to teach it to them. We first started working with Nicco live, but we moved away from Novato and started again with him through Zoom, which my kids say works just as well for them. If you really want your children (or your self!) to get into music, I would recommend you ask Nicco to teach them guitar. He will be able to find what you or your kids love about playing music and make it bloom!
