About
I am a professional drummer with many years in the biz playing in all varieties of settings including rock bands, pop, jazz, musicals, and big bands. I am happy to teach you whatever you're interested in regarding the drums. I studied at Manhattan School of Music with legendary teacher John Riley. I've also studied with Michael Carvin, Kendrick Scott, Rodney Green, and Joe Farnsworth. I'm happy to share with you the insight that I've gathered throughout my career.
