I've been teaching at The Frost School of Music - University of Miami for 20 years in the Studio Music & Jazz Department, and privately for 10 years. I have played/toured and or recorded with Curtis Fuller, Ira Sullivan, Kevin Mahogany, Rick Margitza (South Florida Jazz Orchestra) Mitch Woods, and many other artists. I teach numerous styles, in both small (combo) and large group (big band) settings. I also specialize in college audition preparation for drummers who are majoring in music. Lessons: 1 hour / $80 - I offer Zoom/remote lessons as well as in person lessons, if the student is in the South Florida Area. Hours: Tuesday, Thursday, Friday, Saturday and Sunday between 12:30 pm and 6:00 pm.

Clinic/Workshop Information

I have primarily worked with high school and college ensemble rhythm sections, developing a better hookup with each other, and in turn building a stronger foundation for the rest of the band. I also work with horn sections in big band settings on developing better rhythmic accuracy and phrasing.
