Session drummer with over 15 years of experience on drum set and various percussion. I studied drums and percussion at Berklee college of music in Boston before attending Brooklyn Conservatory of Music. Ability to play all styles with specialty in rock/pop/hip hop. My goal is to make the song sound great and communicate the soul of the song to the listener, not to show off my drum chops, and to do so at a reasonable price that fits your budget.

You will not have to worry about whether the drummer is prepared or not. I will show up on time, the drums themselves will sound great, and the song will be served as well as humanly possible. Being on the other side of the equation, there are a lot of things to stress about when it comes to getting a band or a song together and ready for a gig or a session. My goal is to have you not have to worry about the drums. To not overplay. To show up, do my job with enjoyment and a sensitive ear to the music.
Originally from and still living in Brooklyn, new york I started playing drums at the age of 13. I immediately began performing with mainly punk rock bands and playing gigs. This turned into a full on passion that has continued to this day. I never stop learning. Many years later, I'm now 32 and still continuing my love for the drums. I take pride in not only getting better at my craft with each session I do, but also paying attention to the details many drummers overlook. Tuning, drum maintenance, showing up prepared and ready to adapt for whatever the song calls for.
I have a wide variety of kits, snares and cymbals I choose from that suit what the gig calls for. I am very comfortable playing with or without a click track.
I love whichever music currently speaks most to my soul. I grew up listening to talking heads, led zeppelin, and a lot of punk rock and 90s pop/rock. Hip hop, progressive, pop and rock, I don't so much look for genre as much as if a song speaks to me and comes from a real place.
