Meet me where the music begins.

Drummer. Educator. Creative Entrepreneur.

 

Living in Southern California, a mecca for the arts, entertainment, and the hub of marching percussion, being a part of it all was in my blood. At 10 years old, I saw my first Drumline and although I had no idea what I was watching, I knew I wanted to be a part of the magic. Fast forward many years and ensembles later, I still chase the magic in the percussive world. Drumming has challenged me both physically and mentally and has proven to me every time that we are only as powerful as we believe ourselves to be. It’s given me a creative voice, a platform to educate and an outlet to stand behind the message of music.

What better way to empower, influence, and create something better than through education? I am so inspired by seeing students, artists, creatives alike reach a new level or achieve their goals. Being an educator and a consultant in both the marching arts and the music industry have led me to understand the power of spreading knowledge and helping someone on their journey. No student is alike, no ensemble is alike and certainly no artist is alike, and I am motivated by each of their passions to lead them to where they want to be.

“I’ll never know if I don’t try." I’ve been blessed (and cursed) with a knack for business and have always sought after the creation of new ideas. With this mentality, I brought the marching arts with me on many of my entrepreneurial endeavors. With a Masters Degree in Global Entertainment and Music Business from Berklee College of Music, Merging the 2 worlds I was so deeply passionate about seemed to be, time and time again, what I was “meant to do.” Most currently, I am the founder and CEO of 92 Creatives who has served many other marching percussionists in their artist careers as well as given me an outlet to continue to be creative in the world of the marching arts.

About
92 Creatives.

Putting together my experience in the music business and the platform that had been built for me by the marching community, I recognized that helping other artists achieve their goals was something I wanted to do more of. I developed 92 Creatives to manifest this and have been so proud of the artists and the work we’ve done so far. We strive to be innovative, unique and show artists that everyone has a path, you just have to be diligent enough to find it.
