ABOUT

I started learning drums through private lessons at age 9, and began my musical career playing in clubs at age 18. Growing up in Chicago, I was exposed to a myriad of musical genres, and was fortunate to play in many of them. Over the past three decades, I've enjoyed the opportunity to play in many situations including live radio, TV, and touring. I've also been able to pass on what I know about playing drums through private lessons to a wide range of ages and interests. Playing a musical instrument is a gift that lasts a lifetime.
