Hakkımda: my life has revolved around the drumset since i started 7th grade, i have studied/played, jazz, r & b, rock, afro cuban, blues, reggae, soca, samba, live hip hop & drum n' bass, traditional and modern african music and, yes, once upon a time even classical. music is embedded in my heart from an early age. i have been teaching drums/percussion for the last eight years and have enjoyed the challenge of helping others reach their musical goals just as i was guided on my musical voyage by so many great teachers. i write a little music now and then, make some art(see pic), play frisbee(old school)and work out on my congas(which i suck at) i'm thankful for the chances i've had to be next to musical and artistic greatness. i live in the "DRUM FORT" in "booger hollow", a hidden neighborhood in Kansas City. i'm friends with two semi feral cats that live in the hollow. blah blah blah i can't believe you read this far!
Kimle tanışmak isterim: jimi hendrix, david basse's hat, your mom, you maybe, kenny g in a dark alley etc. etc.
