I started drumming at age eight playing in a drum corps. Lessons followed, and I played with anyone who would have me. I turned professional in 1977, playing rock, jazz, funk and theatre gigs, and have taught since 1983. I have toured internationally with The Seekers and Patrizio, and recorded/performed original music with Brent Parlane Band, Andy Cowan and Dig We Must.
