2010 Nominee – Rock Drummer of the Year – 20th Annual LA Music Awards “Draweth Nigh”
I like to play all styles but always love the rock/metal style. I am a CHRIST follower and have played on worship teams for years. With that, my father put me behind the drum set at the age of 2 and I havent looked back since. I have many years experience playing live ,recording for some bands, and tv commercials. I love to play jazz and funk as well..Honestly…I love and can play it all….yes even country too..:)

INFLUENCES
I like to think that every musician that exists has a talent that is catchy no matter the style or type of music. I try to learn from everybody yet, I like not to copy. Just be me and how I play as an artist.
My main focus is to use what I believe God has given me, a gift of excellent expression and feel from the spirit, to the heart, to the instrument, and finally to the listening ears. I call it ministry through music and it is found in ALL styles..but not everyone plays that way…ask me by getting a hold of me if you want to know how to do that.
EQUIPMENT
DW Pacific Maple X7 double bass set with zildjian and sabians everywhere…cases as well. I can break the kit down to fit style appropriation. I have 5 different snare drums for sound and style difference.
I also own a nice vintage yamaha birch kit from the 70’s with many options for recording and live stuff
