Hi, I’m Michael Pare, a London, Ontario-based guitarist and music educator. I perform at weddings, concerts, and private events, and I handle all client communications, contracts, and logistics. I design personalized lesson plans for students of varying ages and skill levels, and I’m proficient with digital audio workstations and recording software for content creation and event preparation. I also help with website creation and social media to support my performances and teaching. When I’m not on stage, I’m building communities off the guitar as well. I’m the Co-Founder and President of Making Moves Logistics Inc, overseeing daily operations, quotes, billing, scheduling, procurement, and team management. I’m also a hockey official with the Ontario Hockey Association, and I’ve chaired a mentor program to support new officials, promote inclusion, and sustain volunteer growth. I stay active with community music events and volunteer for workshops and collaborations.
