A bit about me:
- Over a decade of teaching experience both privately and through local music schools. Two decades of performing experience in NYC, Tokyo, Hawaii.
-Masters degree from the Manhattan School of Music
- Some past students have gone on to pursue further studies at the College level at Berklee College of Music, University of North Texas, and Oberlin Conservatory.
- Currently working with over 30 weekly one on one students while performing/recording
- Many students starting from scratch with me have gone on to be in their own local bands to gig
Teaching Philosophy:
I like to focus on what I’ve been calling “functional drumming” - meaning that I focus on skills that will help up and coming drummers be functional in real world situations. Everything I teach, and how I look at music is based on what I’ve picked up from being on the NYC scene since 2008.
Of course lessons and goals are tailored to individual needs and learning styles, but I work hard so students can have command of the drum set, as well as a strong grasp of how the music as a whole works. Understanding how the drums relate to and work with all of the other instruments/voices in a band/ensemble setting is extremely valuable to me in any genre.
Most importantly I think lessons should be fun. I believe the deeper we dig, the more fun drumming will be. I have a great time sharing my joy of drumming with my audiences on a gig, and my students can also share this feeling.
I have a lot to offer - Please get in touch with any questions!
Let’s get to work!
