I am a professional drummer with over 30 years of experience, having worked extensively as a performer, producer, and educator. I graduated with honors from Humber College's Music Performance Program and have developed strong skills in Pro Tools for music production and editing. I've had the privilege of having my music featured on television and DVDs, which has been an exciting highlight of my career. In addition to performing as a full-time drummer for the Blue Man Group for over 15 years, I enjoy teaching private lessons in drums, guitar, and music theory both locally and remotely. My passion lies in sharing my knowledge and helping others develop their musical skills while continuing to create and produce my own music from my home studio.
