I’m a lifelong drummer and percussionist with consistent, ongoing session experience across a wide range of musical styles, performing and recording at a professional standard for artists, producers, and live acts. I combine strong technique with a distinctive musical sound, adapting quickly to creative direction while also contributing original ideas when appropriate, always with professionalism and care. I’m confident working with click tracks, in-ear monitoring, and both studio and live production workflows, and I collaborate effectively with artists and creative teams through clear, proactive communication. I bring a genuine desire to add creatively to bands rather than simply play alongside them, with full adaptability across recording and live environments and a strong willingness to commit to touring when required.
