I am a country trained drummer, self trained, jazz, rock ‘n’ roll funk and hip-hop. I’ve been playing in bands for over 30 years and I’m looking to make a living off of playing music as I have done it before. I am very easy to work with I meditate on a daily basis and I enjoy working with fellow musicians to complete projects and create new songs. I’ve played in cover bands and bars, and an original bands done multiple recordings. And I work great with others trying to achieve our goal, becoming paid professional musicians. I am familiar with many different time signatures and different styles. I am very aware of the tempo and keeping the beat.

Influences
I have many influences as I play kit and hand, percussion, and hand pan. My favorite drummer is Stan Moore from the band Galactic. I have listened to many different drummers and in every category of music I find ways to learn with the tremors are playing, as long as the music calls for a drummer. I enjoy listening to jam and jazz country rock ‘n’ roll and any other new fun form of music.
