About me

Basics

I fell in love with this activity in high school. I still remember my first show. My parents came, and I was lucky enough to stay after we performed and watch other bands. From that point forward, I started watching, studying, and learning as much as I could about the activity.

I started writing drill in 2005. I started teaching color guard and staging winter guard shows in 2006. Feel free to check out my YouTube channel to see my works.

Life Outside of Design

At my day job, I am attorney handling estate planning, trust administration, and probate estates in California.
