ABOUT

I got my first drums at 14. Me and several close friends that loved music started a band before we got our instruments. Our band was a heavy metal garage band that started covers but soon started writing our own music. I played with my band from 7th grade until after we graduated high school. Then I left the band shortly to pursue reading music. We were called Dawn Of Destruction for several years. We played The Attic, The Launchpad (Downtown Albuquerque) and many gigs. Since I left the band I played with a couple of musicians. I wanted to start taking it more serious again. I moved out to Los Angeles to attend Musicians Institute. I was working while attending school full time to develop more on my instrument. I want to be a good person, good musician in the band, stay in the pocket, be supportive to other band members, be inspiring to them and be determined to try. I come from a big family of musicians. I want to make my family proud and my grandpa. I'm now relocated to Santa Rosa.
