I developed a passion for drumming at a very early age and I haven't stopped since. I've played in several bands, stand-in gigs and a small amount of recording gigs. I have never received any private lessons and yet I received the John Phillip Sousa award (highest musical honor in high school) and was also accepted to the University of Georgia School of Music for percussion. My love is in rock but I also enjoy swing and funk styles.
