Playing since he was 14 years old, he started playing music in junior high school on the band. “Playing on the marching, jazz, and concert bands was just a neat experience in school. I'm not sure what prompted me to get started, but I think it was constantly hearing music around my house played by my older sister and dad!” he stated.

Growing up some of his favorite artist and groups included Quincy Jones, John Coltrane, Bobbi Humphrey, Patrice Rushen, Roy Ayers, George Duke, Weather Report, Spyro Gyra, Earth, Wind, and Fire and others.
