He started playing drums when he was eleven years old. learned 2 or 3 beats from a friend down the street who had just started drum lessons. No sooner did He even get a grip on playing a simple 2 and 4 groove, he had the unfortunate event of getting severely burned in a camping accident. The drums were a way of healing himself after the fire. He just kept playing and always tried to improve through the years.

Today he is a professional drummer/ producer touring and recording extensively.
