About Me

Been at this a while

I started playing drums in 7th grade. 1992! I studied percussion at MSSU in Joplin and then for a year at the University of New Mexico. 
I have wide range of experience whether it was a heavy metal cover band in high school, orchestras, jazz bands, praise bands, and musicals. 
I'm a full time music educator where I teach band, jazz band, and percussion at a local school district.
Recently, I decided to take my talents online. I've been frustrated watching online drummers teaching skills that are absolutely cool....but not useful in a live setting. Here I hope to teach skills that are applicable to real life settings.
