Since receiving my first drum set at the age of 11, I have always been passionate about playing drums. I had began taking drum lessons privately right away and had continued to do so for nearly ten years.
I knew from an early age that I wanted to pursue a career with the drums. But, being from a small town seemed to make the journey feel impossible at times.
I started teaching drums privately following my graduation from SUNY Adirondack. Teaching drums feels like a blessing, I love being able to push my students and watch them blossom into great drummers. I had been teaching at the Glens Falls Music Academy before they had to unfortunately close their doors for good in late 2020. I now teach in my private studio.
I currently play with:
Last to Fall
Gospel Lighthouse Church
The Capitol Trend
Frank Palangi
I pursue filling in for acts who urgently need a drummer either for a live performance or studio session. While I am not performing live or tracking drums, I am teaching privately at my own studio.
