"I started classical percussion training when I was 9 and immediately became engrossed in hitting things.  I kept that up seriously through high school, but because I was always better at learning by ear than I was at reading music, I shifted gears and got my degree in jazz drumming from NYU in 2011. I thrive most when working with projects that are both musically strange and familiar. Some bands that I have worked with: Son Lux, Landlady, Body Language, Matthew Dear, People Get Ready, Brazos, Vacationer, Father Figures, 2001, Lip Talk."

On C & C:

“Having played C&C for a number of years, I consider them to be part of my sound and style. Their response and warm, fat tone are familiar yet continually inspiring. Also, the fact that they look and smell amazing (yes, my kit smells like maple syrup) doesn’t hurt.”
