About Me

Thank you for visiting my page. I will be putting music here like demos and rare songs. I am sure most of you know my story but to put it briefly i have been playing drums since i was 16. Have been in numerous bands but Nonpoint was the first serious band that I formed. I am nicknamed The Hammer and The Ambassador. Also Silverback thanks to Coby from Papa Roach. The best advice that i can give young drummers is what i did. Watch as many drummers as you can. You will learn something from all of them, you will see something that the previous drummer you saw did not see. I am self taught basically because i could never afford drum lessons. But now i take drum lessons for free by watching every drummer i tour with. Cant beat that deal.I am proudly sponsored by Sonor Drums, Sabian Cymbals and Vater Sticks. I am currently looking for a clothing sponship. YOU SUPPLY ME WITH CLOTHES AND I WILL WEAR IT FOR EVERYTHING THAT HAS TO DO WITH NONPOINT. PHOTO SHOOTS, VIDEOS, LIVE SHOWS ECT...I am currently in the process of writing a book. I will be touching on our beginnings, demo recordings, tours, ups and downs and everything that has to do with Nonpoint and myself. I just recently started and i am hoping that by the end of 2008 I can have it done. I am looking for a title and have come up with the help of my amazing drum tech James "Big Roach" Rochette. Endure- From The Ambassadors Eyes. I am hoping to release it in 2009. Thanx again for stopping by the page. Spread the word on Nonpoint's latest album titled "Vengeance" out in stores everywhere.
