Skilled and expressive drummer with a passion for gospel, Afrobeat, reggae, hip-hop, and contemporary gospel music. I bring heart, soul, and solid timing to every performance. Whether it's driving a church band, vibing with a reggae groove, or adding dynamic energy to Afrobeat and hip-hop tracks, I adapt easily and play with purpose.
Always open to creative collaborations, live gigs, or studio sessions. Reliable, disciplined, and spiritually grounded in the music I play.
