    I have now been giving private lessons for around 8 years and enjoy it very much. I love to help people grow and watch them enjoy the gift they have. In my lessons, students learn techniques, concepts, musicianship, rudiments/fundamentals, and much more. I resigned from a job in 2015 to pursue my music career which includes teaching drums.

My Philosophy: I firmly believe that music possesses the ability to change lives for the better. Music has certainly changed my life and molded me into the man that I am today. As a former C-average high school student, one might be surprised to learn that I received my BA in Music Instruction and graduated with honors. So what happened between high school and college?
