I have been playing drums now for over 15 years and have played a variety style with numerous groups. I attended Western Michigan University and studied with Kieth Hall. Currently, I am finishing my undergrad at Western Illinois University studying with Kevin Nichols. I have plans to do a graduates assistantship. I play in a group called The Orchestrated Loons, as well as the Western Illinois Jazz Studio Orchestra, WIU Combo#1, WIU Concert Band. My main area of study is Jazz. I have been fortunate enough to share the stage and music with artists' like; Bob Mintzer, Roger Ingrim, Chris Vadala, Chris Brubeck, Jack Grassel, Matt Warnock, and Fareed Haque. I plan on continuing to hone my skills as an artist and make a living doing what I love.
