After participating in my local high school's concert, marching, and jazz bands, I attended the School of Music at the University of North Carolina at Greensboro.  It was here that I learned from some of the best professors and where I receieved my Bachelor's of Music Education Degree with an Emphasis in Instrumental Music and a concentration in Percussion.  I've learned to play just about all of the intsruments, the art of teaching, and lots of musical pedagogical info along the way.  I'm very appreciative of everyone who's helped me along my educational career and my goal is to do the same with my band students.
