I have played drums for as far back as I can remember. I am one of the lucky ones who has been able to make music a huge part of my life. Born in Chicago, now residing in Orange County, I make it a point to enjoy the outdoors when not on tour with my band Face to Face. Along with playing music, I am the co-owner of the Music Factory school of music in Costa Mesa Ca. I also host the Drum Tuning Guru pod cast. I love to ride my bikes, both bicycles and motorcycles, spend time with my rescue dogs and study Brazilian Jiu Jitsu. In the next year I plan on getting my pilots license, getting good at photography as well and continuing to make progress in Brazilian Jiu Jitsu.
