I grew up during the Golden Age of Hip-Hop and Neo Soul, and I get plenty kudos by the talented bandleaders and musicians I play with in the studio, on my funky Hard Bop swing, and drum shuffles.

I slickly add the Hip-Hop breakbeats and soulful rhythms that I heard growing up, into my funky swing, while playing the traditional and modern hard swinging Hard Bop Jazz that I play.

I've been playing professionally in the great studios of Westchester County and New York City since 2010, and I've worked diligently to stay sharp with all Jazz standards.
