About Me

" " I am attending a music college in Lakeland, Tennesee where I recieve a Bachelors in Music (percussion) in 2008. After I am done with school I plan to teach lessons, work in studio, or if things work out go on tour for awhile around the U.S. My passion for music began in the year 2000, when I was inspired by my dad who was into music for most of his life and was also a drummer. I picked up this very unique instrument not knowing how good I would be, or where it would take me, but just knowing that I wanted to play it. After 6 years of playing I feel like I have progressed a ton and love to play different styles such as rock, blues, jazz, funk, latin, and country. Other than my purpose in life is to do what I am called to do and do it for one thing, to glorify God.
