Hi there, fellow lovers of drumming!
Thanks for checking out my page!
I am an Australian drummer based out here in Vegas now. Recently, I've been touring the world with Avril Lavigne and Tom Morello, and was with Filter for many years. I love to share my passion for drumming with others!
I also have 18 years teaching/clinic experience at various schools, academies, colleges, and world renowned schools such as M.I. in Los Angeles.
*All my lessons are invoiced, and payments are handled securely via venmo/paypal/cash app/zelle etc*
I love seeing students have fun and evolve into brilliant drummers with a career of their own.

Referred to a school by my former music teacher to teach drums at age 18. Loved sharing my knowledge and passion with others!
All types and abilities. Ages 4+, experience with dislexia and autism, and advanced students looking to gain music school/college entry.
One of my Skype students (who started a few years ago with me in person in Australia) performed his first big concert with his brother, in front of his whole school (1000+ people). He called later to tell me he felt like a rock star when they all screamed for them and everyone wanted his autograph. This is the exact reason I love to teach.
There is not one right way to learn anything. Find a teacher that listens to you and guides you through your weaknesses by using your strengths.
