I have been playing drums since the early age of 9. While a majority of my training has been self taught, I have also taken lessons with top educators in Texas. I've had the honor to perform with a variety of talented musicians professionally across the Texas music scene.

In addition to drum kit, I am a classically trained trombone player who studied under professor Charles Hurt at Texas State. I aim to bring my performance experience and classical music education to my students, in a way that’s easy to digest and most of all, fun!

I can teach a variety of styles including rock, pop, funk, jazz, blues and metal. The progression is focused on fundamentals, technique and theory to ensure that you can apply these concepts to whatever style of music you'd like to play throughout your music journey.

I do volunteer work teaching drum kit, trombone and piano lessons with Kids in a New Groove here in Austin.

Learn from a pro in a friendly, focused environment. Jazz, classical, blues, latin, salsa, funk or get ready for band and auditions. All great musicians have great ears and great time feel (groove). That along with a study of the fundamentals of trombone technique will get us started. Then we'll add the kind of songs that you like to play, and other great trombone literature. Over 15 years experience as a brass coach and private trombone teacher. Currently tour with guitar legend Brian Setzer.
