Age: 29. Lives in: Brooklyn Park. Occupation: Electrical engineer/drummer for the 4onthefloor and the Fattenin' Frogs.
Q: Are there any similarities between electrical engineering and drumming?
A: In electrical engineering, you deal a lot with discrete values, voltage and current. Hitting a drum is discrete in that you are either hitting it -- or not. The feel of drumming is analogous to current, which makes the magic of electricity possible. OK, I just made that up. I kinda use different parts of my brain for each.
Q: Do any of your engineering skills come in handy while touring with the 4onthefloor?
A: The band loves to give me crap about this. "Engineer us a something!" they like to say. I did troubleshoot and fix one of the headlights once. I think that's it.
Q: What would the juke in your ideal music joint play?
A: Rock 'n' roll, old blues and country, "old-timey" everything, and jazz that you can dance to.
Q: You like pizza a lot. What are your local faves?
