Greetings BandMix,
I am relatively new to Melbourne, having moved from Interstate, in 2018. Melbourne is a great cultural city.
Music is my profession.
I have a Bachelors Degree in Jazz (Drum Kit), which I studied in Queensland. I then went to Europe to study a Masters Degree in Latin Music (Latin Percussion - untuned Percussion), & I lived there for a decade, teaching music, performing gigs and embracing the European Arts Culture.
Having performed professionally for years, my experiences crosses over into many genres, which I have listed in the Influences section of this page. I am super keen to work amongst these varying genres, because I enjoy the diversity of performing in different settings. These variations keep my musical life exciting & fresh.
In my profession, I am extremely dedicated & I always do my upmost to prepare for all gigs, & to be ready for your performance.
