I grew up in Toledo, OH and began drumming and taking lessons at the age of 13. I joined everything I possibly could that related to music in H.S. I played in the Jazz, Marching, Pep and Concert bands. Upon graduating I received the Paul Chudzinski "Top Percussionist award". After H.S. I went to college for Recording and Audio Engineering. I learned many useful tools that I still use to this day and that pertain to drumming greatly. After that I made the decision to move to Hollywood, CA to further my education in drumming. It was the best decision I ever made. I studied under the industries top musicians, through a total of 61 courses over 1.5 years. Some of the courses included live performance, music theory, ear training, Latin, Jazz and studio drumming. After graduating I decided to move to Austin, TX where I reside to this day. I'm currently working with a couple artists and play live on a regular basis.
