    He found his way to music at the young age of seven, beginning with a recorder flute in school. At nine, he started with the accordion and continued until he was fourteen. From there he moved to the Fanfare Trumpet for a couple of years and at sixteen he discovered his true passion, when he got his first drum set. It was then that he knew his true calling: to be a drummer!
