For beginner students, my primary goal is to teach fundamental musical concepts and basic technique so that they have a solid foundation on which to expand. This means a focus on rhythm and meter, stick control, and some basic coordination. For intermediate students, I tend to tailor lessons based on their own musical interests, helping them expand their knowledge of the drumset by delving into genres of music that speak to them.

I am more passionate about drumming and becoming a better drummer than any other pursuite I have encountered in life thus far. I have played in many bands covering almost every style and am convinced that every good drummer should be able to switch it up and play in any style demanded of them at anytime. The most popular bands I have played with are: Mercuria and the Gem Stars, Subterranean Safari, Instant Empire, The Yawpers, and my current band Eldren. Read More

I started teaching professionally in Sarasota, FL with a private music school in 1999. I have taught private lessons both at the studio and in students' homes. I also taught group lessons through the Police Athletic League and a local middle school. I love sharing my library of music with my students, and I encourage my students to listen to a variety of music to expand their musical knowledge and to practice, practice, practice! Read More

My method of teaching depends on what the student wants to learn and if he or she have already set goals. I have numerous methods for drumset that will help the student get better on their technique, learn rhythms, sigh read, develop musicianship, soloing concepts, read charts, sticking patterns, coordination/independence, develop groove and feel, construction and creation of fills and more. I also use audio and video examples to help support the learning process. Read More
