I have been a student of Buddhist philosophy for over thirty years and am an American practitioner of the Tibetan Vajrayana school.
As a long-time pilgrim of Himalayan sacred sites he has received Buddhist teachings and traditional instructions/research into the use of sacred sound instruments for ritual and healing purposes.
I have been teaching the Buddhist Dharma of Vibrational Healing across the U.S. and abroad for over twenty years and is considered a pioneer in this powerful healing modality. My unique playing craftsmanship is a fusion of his rarefied studies in sacred sound playing techniques, tantric education, engineering background and Buddhist principles. Principally using a tuned Paiste Earth Gong he creates a Sound Mandala, known as a Gong Bath, that is naturally physically, emotionally and spiritually healing. I am often a prominent speaker/presenter at various conferences having to do with transformative energy, healing, meditation and well being. Paiste International has recognized me as a preeminent Gong Master for his unique and emotionally powerful playing skills.
I established the Sacred Sound Workshops in the 1990s - formalizing and expanding the curriculum in partnership with the Tibetan Bowl Healing School in 2008. (www.tibetanbowlschool.com)
