Music and teaching are two of my greatest passions, and I look forward to sharing that passion with you.

I've been drumming all of my life and I enjoy working with all styles of music. As both a teacher and player, I believe in developing a strong foundation and technique that allows our unique voice to come out as a drummer. During lessons I employ a wide range of methods based on your goals, and I enjoy working with all different skill levels.
