While living in Florida I was a in a successful local rock band and was even blessed with the opportunity to play at the main stage at the Okeechobee Music and Arts Festival.

I'm known as a jazz drummer but I love all styles including jazz, rock, funk, Brazilian and Reggae. Playing and teaching is definitely my passion and I have taught all ages from 3 to 80 and all levels from beginner to advanced.
