Working as a professional drummer since the age of 16, the education in my craft began at age 5 under the guidance of my father, also a professional drummer.

I hold a BA degree in Music Education from C.W. Post at Long Island University.  My credits include teaching junior high school education on Long Island, teaching private drum study, as well as writing a drummer's column in a NY area publication, "The Music Paper."  

I have played on several CD recordings, including one available at Tower Records with the contemporary Christian rock group, "Rapture."  I am also featured on Robin Yukiko's first album, "Me and My Apathy."  

My wife, Rose Marie, and I have lived in Florida since 1989, and I currently work in the sales and marketing industry as a food broker representative.  Additional musical ventures include doing a musical production at the Civic Theater, Pump Boys and Dinettes, playing with the Howard Herman Trio, featuring Barbara Jones, for 8 years at the Citrus Club, and currently (15+ years) playing contemporary services as the house drummer at St. Paul's Presbyterian Church in Ocoee.
