Born to Play

With a love of music, performance and entertainment, I am always looking to develop, create, and share my music and art with the world. I started playing at a young age and acquired experience inside and outside of the recording studio. It wasn't until high school where I knew for sure he wanted to play the drums for a living. After high school, I studied music in college and graduated with a Bachelor's in Music Performance, with an emphasis in percussion. While in college, I was lucky enough to study with drummer extraordinaire Tim Pope, one of the drummers for Ray Charles. One of my biggest accomplishments was a chance to play at Red Rocks in Colorado, you can check out the videos of the performance in my video section.

Currently, I am a freelance musician and drum instructor in Dallas/ Fort Worth Texas. I’ve played with great players in and out of the DFW region which include Lance Lopez, Charlie Crockett, Zac Wilkerson, Tennessee Jet, Michael Lee (B. B. Kings Blues Band), Leon Bridges, Kayla Reeves (Trans-Siberian Orchestra), Jim Suhler (George Thorogood), 5 time Grammy winner Tim Alexander (Asleep at the Wheel), Andy Timmons, opened for Dwight Yoakam, opened for Cody Jinks and many more!

I’ve taken my passion for music and worked relentlessly to make this my career, teaching and supporting other artists. I hope to be able to share some of my work with you all and look forward to collaboration and project opportunities that we can partner on! I am currently a proud endorsed artist with SJC Drums (https://www.sjcdrums.com/ and Xcel Drumsticks https://xceldrumsticks.com/. Explore the rest of my site for more information and follow me on Facebook and Instagram!
