I have been drumming for decades. Man, time flies. But drums will always be my passion - one that makes me feel much younger and alive.

I play rock and blues mostly, and most other styles. Over the years I have enjoyed being in many bands with many amazing players, playing some great gigs.

Happy to say I still am available to do gigs and I still play and record in my San Clemente home studio.

I retired from a hi-tech marketing career in April of 2023.

The day finally arrived where I got off the hamster wheel and not only get to play drums more, but also spend my days restoring, modifying and repairing drum gear. Grateful.

I do most drum repairs, shell reductions, bearing edges, cymbal repair and other customizing. Drummers, feel free to contact me and let's talk drums and how I can help you with your gear.
