After the Army he moved to Michigan to pursue music playing live gigs and recording drums for jingles for radio commercials. He decided to move to Los Angeles in 2003 to study at the M.I.

After returning in 2007, having received his Journeyman and Professional certificates in percussion from M.I. he was hired on in 2007 as a classroom drummer and later an LPW (Live Playing Workshop) instructor, all the while playing gigs with local bands and working doing recording sessions.
