ABOUT

I am currently playing contemporary Christian rock couple times a month during Sunday worship service.
I am trained at Humber College Jazz many years ago in Toronto, and my professional career consisted of teaching, and gigging with local rock and funk bands, jazz clubs etc.
After a hiatus and moving my family out to Calgary, I have been passive/active the last couple years, building on my previous experiences in Toronto where I spent most of my life.
Other than Church, I am not committed to anything else at the moment, but I am interested in expanding my network, and meeting other talented musicians.
My core personality on the drum kit is a jazz fusion/funk style, with rock and latin flavours however, I can technically play any style.

My next project is to re-launch my teaching again, and if there are possibilities to play with other Christians on the Church circuit that would be interesting. I am open and interested in finding out what else is here in Calgary, see what other projects people are working on that might work well with my style and/or experience.

Thanks for taking time to read a little bit about me and I look forward to meeting some interesting people.
