I am a creative and encouraging instructor who loves helping students discover their own abilities. I have been playing drums for over 13 years, and have been in numerous projects in a range of genres in recent years, even including some contributions to a film score. Growing up in a family of musicians and teachers, a love for music and music education is baked into my heart.

I began teaching when I was halfway through college. I began teaching private students as well as drumlines at local high schools.

I highly encourage my students to practice every day for a minimum of 20 minutes in order to retain information as well as their technique. Read More
