    As a teacher, my goal is to get you to a point where you can have fun on the instrument as soon as possible. Whether you'd like to prepare for a career in music, strengthen your fundamentals, learn how to record yourself, make YouTube videos, or just learn some fun grooves, we'll work together to create an effective plan that will up your game! I'm a music school graduate, with major label performance credits and 10 years experience as a working professional drummer and educator. I'm well versed in a variety of genres, as well as digital recording and programming.
