About Ian
I am from Honolulu, Hawaii and have been playing music since I was eight. I started out playing pop/rock and then I got seriously into jazz. I attended the Manhattan School of Music where I studied with John Riley, Kendrick Scott and John Benitez. Music has brought me to many places around the world such as China, Hong Kong, Mexico, to name a few. I play all around NYC and I am interested/play a wide array of genres such as jazz, fusion, pop, hiphop, rock etc. Music is something that is very important to me and I hope to inspire people to feel the way I do about music.

I am a big believer in setting a good foundation by learning the fundamentals. However I do not want lessons to be boring. I want to know what kind of music you are interested in and what you personally want to play. Using music as a way to incorporate fundamentals is very important for my teaching style.

100% he’s a great teacher and I learn so much just talking to him about the drums!
Ian is an incredibly talented musician and teacher who has constantly inspired and taught me things since meeting him. He is very focused and methodical, and will certainly help any person increase their musicianship. I highly recommend Ian!
Ian’s approach to drums is not only educational, but also very fun. I recommend him to any student looking to further their skills.
Ian is one of the most versatile drummers I know. He is well-versed in all styles, from jazz, various styles of Latin music, to hip-hop, and is one of the most sought-after young drummers in New York’s jazz scene. I highly recommend studying with Ian!
Ian was an excellent teacher. He provided me with multiple sheet music to practice from and showed me many techniques which was very helpful. I was able to start playing a simple groove pretty quickly!
I knew him from middle school but we never really talked. I knew he was a drummer which caught my interest since I was thinking of playing. However, I didn’t start playing until a few years later in high school. When I did I learned from him for about seven months.
Ian is laid back and has a structured teaching style. He encourages you to come up with your own vocabulary/ideas.
I definitely recommend him. He’s very knowledgeable in music and explains things in a way that makes it easy to understand.
He’s also reliable. He’s always been on time and is quick to respond to messages. You can really feel his passion for music when he teaches and plays.I have been a friend of Ian for a very long time. Me myself is an English teacher and also a voice teacher, though Ian sometime could be not as loud and expressive as i am, whenever he speaks, he speak with weight and depth. On top of that. He is a man with great morality, All these years i've known him he has always put me back onto the right track when i make mistakes. also, he id one of the finest musician i have ever known, not just a drummer but a musician. He loves his craft, not for fame or anything but the art itself, and that is nobel.Based on these information that I have provided honestly, i do recommend him to be a teacher that works with your organization. Have a good day.
