I have dedicated my life to percussion and have spent more than 30 years working with world class drum corps and marching bands. I started drumming when I was 11 years old and never let anything get in the way of practicing or performing. I was lucky enough to study with influential teachers and have great mentors throughout my college years at the University of Massachusetts and Indiana University. Since 1995, I have served as an assistant band director at the University of Delaware.
