I have been playing music since I was about 8 years old. I started with the drums once my parents tired of my "playing" the kitchen! I started playing the drums at 11 years old and had my first student when I was old enough to drive. I started playing guitar at 25 when my life made keeping drums impractical. I picked up bass while playing with a small jazz group that did not have a bass player. Read More

My teaching experience dates back to my college days when I was an instructor for the Rangeview High School percussion ensemble for two years.

I am more passionate about drumming and becoming a better drummer than any other pursuite I have encountered in life thus far. I have played in many bands covering almost every style and am convinced that every good drummer should be able to switch it up and play in any style demanded of them at anytime. The most popular bands I have played with are: Mercuria and the Gem Stars, Subterranean Safari, Instant Empire, The Yawpers, and my current band Eldren. Read More

My philosophy for lesson structure is that fun and context are a necessity. Learning exercises in a vacuum can be uninspiring and boring, but turning those exercises into games and allowing students to play along to tracks makes the music come to life! Instead of "having to" do an exercise or play a pattern, the student now "gets to" play a fun rhythm game or play along to music they like. Read More
