I'm a drummer, percussionist, keyboardist, engineer, and producer based out of Hopewell, NJ. Growing up in Virginia, music has been a part of my life since I first sat down at a piano at age seven. After college and a stint at The Collective School of Music, I settled in New York City in 2004, and never looked back. Im always studying and searching for new forms of expression with the constant hope of expanding my musical horizons. I love to play live, I love to record music, I love working on soundtracks, I love to tour, I love to help people with their music and I love to teach. Lots of love going around.
