I remember sitting there with these older musicians, lost in the feeling and movement of the music as though I had transcended this plane of existence. In the following four months or so, I joined two bands and began playing live at every possible opportunity: Teen centers, town halls, art spaces, motorcycle rides, homecoming festivals, you name it. The ride that began over a decade ago continues to this day, and the roller coaster just seems to be climbing higher and higher all the time. Read More

My teaching experience started in college. I was one of the music teachers at Arts For Youth summer camp. It was at AFY that I got my first start to teach children music. I enjoyed it so much I began to pursue other avenues of teaching music. I worked with after school programs in New Hampshire and Rhode Island and developed music programs for 5-12 year olds.

I was born in 1991 and started playing drums shortly after that. Growing up in Detroit Michigan I fell in love with sound and was exposed early to many different styles of music.

Instruments: Drums

Listen, listen, listen! Listening is the most important thing that a student can do to get better at the drums. By doing so the student will be able to imitate, assimilate and finally innovate, which is the goal. Listening to lots of records and copying what the drums are playing is critical! Not only will I do my best in teaching fundamentals, technique or more developed concepts on the drums but I will also provide skills necessary to be able to self-learn and practice efficiently so that the student can troubleshoot and not fully depend on a teacher.
