BIO: I am a multi-instrumentalist who has taught drums, horns, piano, guitar, ukulele, and band classes for over a decade. I began seriously playing music in the Metropolitan Youth Symphony and The Pacific Crest Jazz Orchestra (PCJO) in Portland, Oregon in 2009. These groups played Jazz Festivals around the country and with various artists, notedly; I played lead trombone on this song with Esperanza Spalding. The composition went on to win a Grammy Award for Best Instrumental Arrangement in 2011.

I’ve had the distinct pleasure of traveling around the US and Caribbean with projects ranging from playing Trombone in the Broadway show, Hairspray to touring the US on drums with Bubba Feathers, the Rockabilly heir to Charlie Feathers (Elvis, Roy Orbison, Johnny Cash).

I studied Music Education, Arranging, and Performance at Central Washington University, where I played with and arranged for Chamber Groups, Wind Ensembles, and various Jazz Ensembles, ranging from an Organ Duet, where I played the Drums to playing Lead Trombone in CWU 's top Jazz Ensemble.

I also work as a freelance sound engineer in addition to performing with various touring acts based out of Los Angeles. I’ve had the pleasure of mixing artists from Miles Davis’ drummer Vince Wilburn to producing my own music and collaborating with chart-topping artists to make music enjoyed by millions.
