Bio
⇐ Swipe
It was the months before Christmas of ‘97 that I realized, at the age of 8, that I wanted to be a professional drummer someday. Fast-forward many years later, through countless hours of practice and performance, and I’m still working to achieve that dream, though I’ve broadened my desire to become not just a drummer, but a musician. I’m a graduate of the Jamie Aebersold Jazz Studies Program at the University of Louisville, where I was under the tutelage of some of the finest musicians in the region.
Over the years I’ve worked with many different groups in varied styles, from Americana to fusion jazz, prog rock to top 40. At this time I’m working on various projects, all of which are uniquely original, and to which I contribute my own compositions. Other areas of interest include recording and mixing music, shooting and editing video, reading, thinking, cooking, and generally enjoying life.

Equipment
Drums
My regular go-to drum set is the Whitney Drums Nesting Penguin drum set with a beautiful purple stain. The drums nest inside one another, like a Russian doll set, and can be carried in one case. All drums and hardware mount to a single stand (except the hi hat stand) and can be moved as a single entity. And since the kick drum is mounted, there's no need for a rug. Sizes are 18" Kick, 10" and 13" toms, and 13" snare. Check out WhitneyDrums.com to find out more!

Cymbals
I use a variety of cymbal brands because my concern is with the qualities of the cymbal, not necessarily the brand. I use Bosphorus, Istanbul, Sabian, Paiste, and Ziljian.
Bosphorus Ari Hoenig Signature Lyric Series 21" Ride Cymbal.
Istanbul Mel Lewis Signature 21" Ride Cymbal.
Sabian HHFlat Flat Bell Ride Cymbal.
*Only used sometimes.
Paiste Signature Series 13" Hi Hats.
Gear
These bags are made of full-grain leather and will likely last longer than I do. They're as sturdy as anything you could imagine and they've been great. Check out AnthologyGear.com to find out more!
