ABOUT
I'm a former touring drummer with over 25 years of experience playing and teaching music. After spending time playing in bands in Miami, NYC, Chicago, and being fortunate enough to tour the world for a short time, I've settled into a day job, but looking to get back out there and meet musicians to play with. I have a kit, transportation, and I'm up for rehearsals and gigs pretty much anywhere in the greater Boston area.

Influences
I've played a lot of different genres and have multiple influences in every one. To put it succinctly, I'm a lot more interested in a good groove than anything flashy. I think the drummers who influenced me most are the really musical guys: Ringo, Levon Helm, Steve Gadd, and Matt Cameron.
