I've been a full time professional musician for 13+ years and have toured all over the world performing with music icons like Chacka Khan, Beyonce, and many more. I have a lot of experience with many different styles of music and I love sharing this gift with anyone who's interested. My teaching philosophy is simple: Get students playing music! It's much easier to understand the nuts and bolts of music when put into the context of the music you like.

I currently have my Bachelor's degree in World/African-American Music with a concentration in Percussion Performance from the University of Massachusetts at Dartmouth. I am also certified to teach Vocal or Instrumental Music in public schools in Massachusetts for grades K-8. I have a focus in playing/teaching all styles on drumset and also have vast performance and teaching experience on several disciplines of percussion. These include but are not limited to: Orchestral Percussion, Jazz/Rock/R & B/Fusion/Hip-Hop/Latin Drumset, 2 and 4 Mallet Vibes/Marimba, Rudimental/Marching Percussion, West-African Drumming, Brazilian Samba, Afro-Cuban/Latin Percussion, and Steel Drums. I also play/teach Piano and Trumpet.

When I was young I travelled around the world a lot! I had amazing opportunities to meet a wide array of very different people while gaining perspective on the world. Since friends were always changing I found a way to soothe myself by writing short songs about what I was going through, not only was it therapeutic - but at a certain point I started getting paid! I've studied Music Therapy now so I believe in taking an approach which is best suited to the students needs.
Currently I am a student at Berklee College of Music, I have one year left! I'm often producing music, cooking a big soup, working on a collaboration or working a gig.

I'm a very friendly and easygoing instructor. My philosophy in teaching music is to show the student musical elements that can be put into practice right away, which can be used in a context to have a solid reference of the progress made.
