About Me

As a drummer & percussionist, I've spent the last 13 years recording and/or performing with Shawn Mullins, BoDeans, Sugarland, Geoff Achison, Aslyn, Bloodkin, Billy Pilgrim, Jennifer Nettles Band, Tift Merritt, Beth Wood, Art "Buddy" Edwards, John Austin, Ellis Paul, Delta Moon, Evan McHugh, Coy Bowles, Michael Levine, The Sundogs, Chuck Brodsky, Jon Allmett, Ben Mize, Kristin Markiton, The Atlanta Pops Orchestra, Kingsized and Tongo Hiti. I studied classical percussion at the Manhattan School of Music and at the Indiana University School of Music, where I was a student of Kenny Aronoff.

I use Ludwig drums, Musser vibraphone and marimba, and Vic Firth drumsticks exclusively.
