Im a Berklee trained film Scorer who studied jazz with Hal Crook, Ian Froman, Greg Hopkins, Joe Lovano, Phil Wilson, Lin Biviano, Dave Samuels, Victor Mendoza, Ralph Peterson and more. I was inspired to drum watching Little John Roberts smash the drumset with Russell Gunn every Thursday evening as a kid in Atlanta. Im also a multi-instrumentalist and used to be seen on the New York subway with a cymbal bag on my back and a viola case in my hand.
