I have discovered through my studies, the more I learn the more I don't know.  We are all perpetual beginners and our advancement depends on or ability to use fundamentals as tools for self expression.  Whether it's learning how to bounce a stick, or wrapping your head around conveying time (or times!), or even moving into a spiritual aspect of drumming, I am happy to offer any assistance you may need.

I've been playing drums since I was 5 and teaching since I moved to NYC in 2004.  I graduated from the New School for Jazz and Contemporary Music and have been performing ever since.  In addition to playing I continue to practice and study, broadening concepts of music, rhythm, technique, and communication.  I love sharing what I've learned hope it can help anyone on a similar path.
