I'm a session and performance drummer. Behind the kit since age 11, with formal training in the early years. I have been paying dues in the Houston area gig and recording scene since 2001, and relocated to Corvallis, Oregon early in 2009. While I like to consider myself a Rock drummer (capturing my interests in classic rock, progressive metal and fusion), I have worked in nearly every genre drums can be put to. Now I am hard at work establishing new connections and creating some of the most challenging music I have attempted with Brothers of Grimm, a new thrash metal group. On the side, I have also been pretending to learn a little guitar for fun.
