SEEKING
Band to Join, Drums.ABOUT
At the age of four I discovered my love for playing drums and in the following years, I was taught by Günther Klingel (Berkley College of Music) and Martin Stöck (PUR). Afterward, I completed a professional study with Hans-Peter Becker (Modern Drum School), who prepared me for my next step: Moving to Los Angeles, California where I started studying drums at the PIT (Percussion Institute of Technology), which I graduated „With Honors“. I had daily lessons with Joe Porcaro, Ralph Humphrey, Steve Houghton, Efrain Torro, Curt Bisquera and Ray Luzier, to name but a few. I also had Masterclasses and Private lessons with Enzo Todesco, Dave Weckl, Terry Bozzio, Steve Smith, Ed Thigpen, Mike Shapiro, and Joy Heredia. During this intensive time, I got the opportunity to learn a wide range of drum styles and techniques which allows me to play a vast variety of music. Since my return to Germany, I have been working as a professional musician in live and studio sessions for various bands and artists.
