I've worked in all the Atlantic City casino's as a free-lance drummer and was the house drummer for the "French Quarter Follies" in New Orleans, LA. I studied drums/percussion with William Schinstine (Renowned Percussion Educator, Timpanist, National Symphony & San Antonio Symphony), Brian Holt (New Sousa Band), John Beck (Eastman School of Music), Carl Mattola (Frank Sinatra, Elvis Presley, Mike Douglas Show), Dave Mancini (Maynard Ferguson) and earned a Bachelor of Music in Applied Percussion Performance from the Eastman School of Music.
