Guitarist

Ron was born and raised in North Bay, Ontario, where he began studying guitar at the age of twelve. During high school, he was an active member of the music program and started performing in local rock bands. In 1978, he moved to Hamilton, Ontario, to study classical jazz and classical guitar at Mohawk College’s Applied Music Program. After graduating, he worked as a freelance classical jazz rock pop guitarist around the Toronto-Hamilton area. Ron continued his education at McMaster University, where he earned an Honours Bachelor of Music (Summa Cum Laude), followed by a Bachelor of Education from the University of Toronto. His versatility, along with his skills in sight reading and improvisation, made Ron an in-demand guitarist, performing for professional theatre productions, big bands, dance, pop, and classic rock groups. Additionally, Ron offers guitar lessons and shares his expertise as a music educator. He continues to perform regularly in clubs, restaurants, and private venues in and around the Hamilton area.

In addition to teaching Band, Choir, and Vocal music, Ron designed and initiated the curriculum for the guitar programs offered at his schools. He also taught adult guitar lessons at Mohawk College and for the Hamilton Wentworth CDSB, maintaining a busy private guitar teaching schedule throughout the 1980s and 90s as a classical jazz rock pop guitarist. Although Ron has retired from secondary teaching, he continues to share his expertise by teaching guitar and theory privately at his home studio.
