A big thanks to for spending yesterday at working with the students and I teach together!

Thanks to for a great class at TWU yesterday all about finding and pursuing your passion, building a community, and how to pick out the best sounding blades of grass to place on timpani when a piece asks for it!

Christmas in March at ! Adding a beautiful 4.3 rosewood marimba to our inventory of gear and excited for it to get lots of use the rest of this year and beyond!

Big thanks to Lindsay Vasko for dropping a ton of knowledge coaching the TWU Percs on music by .drums and Victor LaBozzetta!

Fun week with this perc section playing The Planets! First time for me to play the whole thing and I’m already looking forward to the next one 🪐

Fun start to the season as principal timpanist of the Las Colinas Symphony Orchestra! Looking forward to some children’s concerts next week and all the rep later in the year.

Action shot from my presentation at the National Association of College Wind and Percussion Instructors this morning. It was great getting to talk about structuring curriculum for young college students!
