  • WHAT INSPIRES YOU?

    Artists/Musicians who make music I connect to emotionally, and music that is challenging to me.

  • WORDS OF WISDOM FOR THE NEXT GENERATION OF DRUMMERS

    Keep pushing to pursue your dreams. It takes hard work and consistency of course, but also I feel a big part of being a touring musician is having good social skills and connecting to the crew you are touring with. Also, always being on time, learning the material and being professional. I would also add that being grateful for the people who helped you get to were you are at is extremely important as well. The people who recommended me for gigs/ gave me a word of advice and helped me throughout the way are the reason why I got to where I am now.
