ABOUT
Thus far, my music career spans well over twenty-five years and runs the gamut from vocal performance in The Kennedy Center for the Performing Arts in Washington DC to playing live metal at the Boston Hard Rock Cafe; fourteen years as the pit drummer for a burlesque troupe and (every once in a while) straight-up hired gun. I have been incredibly fortunate to perform in many different locations and venues and in different styles of music from pop to metal, hip-hop to country, jazz, bluegrass, funk and folk.
