The goal is to get students energized about striving for excellence in everything they do, and music is a terrific vehicle to witness those results. I developed my passion for teaching during my time in Chicago. I directed percussion programs at Niles West High School, Fenwick High School, Rauner College Prep, and substitute taught at Chicago School for the Arts. I also instructed private drumset lessons at Altered Stage, Guitar Chicago, North Shore Music Institute, and maintained a private studio. Read More

I'm in love with music and the ability to play and teach the instrument known as the drum set to any willing person!

I've had the luxury of playing alongside some of the best musicians in the world, many who are internationally renown. I also have my own band, which has garnered me the opportunity as a leader to play on platforms such as the Richmond Jazz Festival. Read More
