This experience gave him the opportunity to travel throughout Europe, playing concert and giving lectures on regional Italian frame drums techniques.
  A Summa Cum Laude Berklee College of Music graduated he performed and performs in virtually any genre of music from Jazz to World Music to Rock. He's the co-founder of the World music ensemble Grand Fatilla and Italian folk music ensemble Newpoli where he plays percussion and sings. Highly in demand both as a drummer and as percussionist, he's currently the drummer for Herb Reed's and The Platters, Laura Vecchione and Tony Gallo's Group and he's the percussionist for Musaner Armenian Folk ensemble.

He taught master classes at Berklee and worked at Emerson College and Boston Conservatory as accompanist for dance classes. He's the author of all the drum transcriptions for Skip Hadden's drum book "Profiles in Jazz Drumming" and “Broken Eight's Time Feel”.
