SPECIAL NOTICE FOR ALL STUDENTS AND PARENTS:
Thanks to a strong demand for SyracuseDrums.com lessons, my schedule is currently fully booked. My usual emergency slots have been filled to make room for some very deserving students. If you need to change your day or time, I’ll do my best to shuffle things around, but availability is limited, and a swap might not be possible. I really appreciate your support and understanding; it means everything to me!

My Passionate Mission:
To improve the knowledge and abilities of students, instructors, and music programs by providing high-quality content or education at every level in a simple and enjoyable way.
My 'Core Four' Values & Rank-Ordered Priorities:
1. Integrity - The top priority: If we can't do it with integrity, we don't do it.
2. Education - Everything we do revolves around education without exception.
3. Enjoyment - There's an unbreakable line between mastery and enjoyment.
4. Community - Give back to the local community and the drumming community alike!
My Triple Bottom Line:
Helping every student helps the community, which helps the business!
To date, SyracuseDrums.com and PRFB Percussion & Pageantry Arts have
donated over $1,552.82 in cash to help local communities and education!
