I started playing snare drum at the age of 10. I studied my first six years with Finnish snare drum master Risto Skrikberg, then 4 years in Conservatoire of Tampere and from 1991-1994 at Manhattan School of Music with John Riley. After Manhattan School of Music my freelance career began and I have done over 5,000 sessions for different artists in Finland and internationally. Education is very important for me. I wanna share all my knowledge and that's been my mission for 25 years.
