Music is the source of my inspiration in life. It infiltrates nearly every moment of my every day. Musically speaking, percussion is my muse. I compete with the North Texas Caledonia Pipe Band and the Silver Thistle Pipes and Drums on Scottish snare, and play various percussion odds and ends with the Sarah Dinan Band . I also dabble with the concertina and accordion. Outside of the celtic idiom, I've studied many styles of Latin percussion-ing. Latino-centric music is one of my greatest passions.
Learning is a lifelong activity, though I have grown ever disenchanted with academia. For myself, constant exposure to different ideas, places, and ways of life are the surest ways of keeping life fresh and instigating personal growth. I love to read, but life often distracts me.
On a less earnest note: I germinated within the long-withstanding South Austin folk scene, and must credit it for who/what/how I am today. I've a patrilineally inherited cornball sense of humor, a knack for bad puns as well as my own well honed, anti-climactic style of story telling. All in all, I consider myself a fairly amiable person. So please, don't hesitate to say howdy.
