"I work with all levels and ages from beginners to professionals; from 7 year olds to 70 year olds. I work with many drumming styles including Funk, Rock, Afro-Cuban, Brazilian, Jazz, Odd Times, Fusion, Klezmer,  orchestral snare,  and basic mallet keyboards. My approach is to work with the goals time restraints, and musical needs of each student. I have had over 40 years of experience as a teacher and I am an active professional drummer"
