Playing History:
I got my first kit back in 1998. One year later, I formed my first band with some high school
friends called Vanished Prophets. In 2001, I moved to Montreal to pursue my ambitions. After
a few stumbles with miscellaneous rock bands, I joined the black metal band Artefact, which would
later become Nefastus Dies.
In 2004, I joined Neuraxis and embarked on my first real tour through the Canadian maritime
provinces.

I was an integral part of Neuraxis for the next five years. My contributions can
be heard on “Trilateral Progression” (2005), “Live Progression” (2007), and “The Thin Line
Between” (2008).
After leaving Neuraxis in 2009 to return to school and learn accounting, I soon accepted an
offer to join Augury for the “Deflorate” tour with The Black Dahlia Murder. I ended up playing
with Augury for about a year in 2010.
In 2011, I joined the Canadian Military as a Pipe Band Drummer. This engagement has carried
Me through for the last 13 years.

Since 2013, I have worked on several studio projects. Most
notably 'Conflux - The Inception;' 'Akurion - Come Forth To Me' (2020), and now 'Derelict - Versus Entropy.'

I have proudly endorsed TAMA Drums since 2018.

Versus Entropy is the opening track of Derelict’s new studio album of the same name. The
band is largely influenced by bands such as Death and Neuraxis. It combines mean blast beats,
syncopated grooves, guitar solos, time modulations, and clean passages.
