For students who are young with no musical background I start with the Essential Elements series. At the next stage, I challenge the student based on their interests. I tend to push students to learn jazz, as its the basis for all drum set playing, but know that most kids are more interested in other more modern styles and accommodate them accordingly. I have a number of books that I can draw from, including Jim Chapin's jazz book, Syncopation, New Breed, Buddy Rich's book, and many more.. Read More

I teach my students to practice a growth mindset. As musicians, I find that we can easily become perfectionists.

I truly believe that students can more easily reach their full potential when they are focused on growth rather than competition against others. Read More
