ABOUT

I have been a musician since the age of nine when I began playing trumpet for the Northwood Elementary school band. I began playing drums when I was thirteen years old and took three years of lessons with professional musician Greg Edwin at Edwin’s Music Store. He had a tremendous impact on my playing style and helped me earn a great appreciation for the fundamentals and dynamics of rock drumming. I then began joining local rock bands and gigging around the Western New York area as I entered high school.
