Grew up in Jackson and Grand Rapids, Michigan. Attended Indiana Univ. School of Music. Student of Kenny Aronoff from '93 to '96. Lived in Nashville for 2 years before moving to Lost Angeles in 1999 to join a great rock band named Hair of the Dog. Recorded two discs with HOTD, "Rise" in 2000 and "Ignite" in 2001. In 2002, I started backing up amazing slide-blues guitarist Eric Sardinas, with whom I toured many countries around the world including Spain, Italy, Portugal, France, Japan, Australia, Germany, England, Norway, and... umm.... Texas! I am honored and thrilled to be the drummer for W.A.S.P! The last fall tour took us to 22 countries all over Europe and Asia. More insanity will be coming up this year, with plans to hit all 18 corners of the globe. Go to www.waspnation.com for updated news and tour dates. The new disc "Dominator" will be out shortly! I currently play and endorse Pearl Drums, Sabian Cymbals, Ahead Drumsticks, and Evans Drumheads.
