  • WHAT INSPIRES YOU?

    People who have the ability of lifting others, the ability to step back and base the musical choices upon what the material and the person in front of you needs to take off.

  • WORDS OF WISDOM FOR THE NEXT GENERATION OF DRUMMERS

    Play everything and with as many people as possible, you always learn something new from everyone. Cultivate your curiosity and go for your dream whole-hearted. You either expand or phase out.

  • FAVORITE ZILDJIAN CYMBAL/COMBO

    There are a lot of amazing combos, but I've realized that I most of the time blend my setups with a 20" Kerope cymbal.
