About.

I started playing drums when I was five and have been performing professionally since the age of 16 coming from a family of professional musicians. During my stint in the military I performed with a number of bands both Stateside and overseas. Upon my return to civilian life when my military duty was fulfilled, I picked up where I left off and started freelancing as a drummer once again and have been doing so ever since. 

 

Performing R&B, Classic Rock, Jazz, Latin Jazz, Country, the Standard Club Date repertoire and Contemporary Christian.

I have professional gear (Ludwig, Zildjian) and equally professional in my approach to every performance. I'm available for daytime as well as evening performances. In addition to session work.

​

I'm a member of the New Jersey Musicians Guild Local 16-248, American Federation of Musicians of the United States and Canada (AFM) and available for any performance where union membership is required. I also participate in The Recording Industry's Music Performance Trust Fund sponsored events administered through the AFM. In addition I'm a member of the Freelance Musicians Association, a player conference of the AFM.
