Introduction: Hey there! I'm a Worcester, MA (USA)-based drummer, producer/electronic musician, & music educator and have over 15 years experience teaching music to all ages. In addition to teaching privately over the past 15 years, I was the recipient of the "Outstanding Youth Advocate Award" from Berklee College of Music's Community Outreach Dept. in 2014 for teaching at the West End House Boys & Girls Club (Allston, MA), I've also taught at Indian Hill Music School (Littleton, MA), Boston Public Schools' Counseling & Intervention Center (Roslindale, MA), the Mary Lyon Pilot High School (Brighton, MA), Somerville Public Schools (Somerville, MA), & the Boys+Girls Clubs in Leominster and Gardner (MA). I've also given music production workshops at A3E, an international music production conference at the Hynes Convention Center as well as at music production schools in Istanbul, Turkey, an electronic music festival in Guatemala, and in Wellington, New Zealand. Additionally, I currently teach students throughout the US and abroad online primarily using Skype + Zoom. I graduated Berklee with Cum Laude honors and with a dual degree - Drum Performance and Electronic Production & Design. In addition to teaching, I have been frequently performing with bands around the U.S., & have performed with internationally acclaimed artists including Nona Hendryx, Simon Shaheen, & Richard Devine. I've also performed in 10 countries in the past 11 years - USA, Canada, Mexico, Cuba, Guatemala, Colombia, Brazil, Ghana, Turkey, & New Zealand. I do my best to be a caring & thoughtful teacher, finding great joy out of seeing (and hearing) students build musical skills and sharing my knowledge with others. Each student is given a custom lesson plan to help maximize lessons and to help each student be the best musician he/she/they can be. Whether it be drum lessons, music production lessons, or music theory lessons, I strive to bring true professionalism and passion to each and every lesson!

Our experience with Josh has been amazing! We bought a package (love the discount with the packages), my so has just done a few lessons and has already made a ton of improvement. Josh is very patient and meets my son where he is at! I highly recommend him!

Josh is such an amazing drum instructor! His passion for drumming and teaching makes every lesson a blast. He is very intuitive and can pin point precisely where you need help as a drummer. He has helped me break some bad habits in addition to helping me form good habits. Moreover, Josh gives detailed notes from every lesson. It's so helpful to have my progress documented and receive a structured drum regiment. He also helps you build confidence in the "process" which makes it a lot more fun to practice. I really enjoy working with him and would recommend him to anyone who wants to take their drumming to the next level!

We have been really impressed with Josh the few weeks that we have worked with him. Our son was looking to advance his drumming skills to the next level and Josh doing just that! We also appreciate how responsive he's been when we have had questions and is extremely detail oriented in his explanations.

Josh is immensely talented as both a teacher and technically as a drummer. His knowledge of the instrument ,and his ability to curate and create a course curriculum for me specifically has made getting back into drumming very accessible. He is also very fun, interesting and pleasant to work with. I highly recommend him.
