I am a 4th year Music Education/History student at Marshall University. (GO HERD!) My primary instruments are euphonium and tuba, I also play percussion, and will attempt to play anything you hand me. I am a member of the Zeta Eta chapter of Phi Mu Alpha Sinfonia. (OAS AAS LLS!)
I started marching band in the 7th grade and have marched ever since then, and this coming season (2009-10) will be my 11th season of marching band overall.

Some of my favorite DCI corps are Carolina Crown, Phantom Regiment, Santa Clara Vanguard, Bluecoats, Boston Crusaders, Southwind, and Capital Regiment.

Design/judging philosophy is pretty simple. I try to do/look for things that I could put on paper and give to one of the high school bands I teach for drill. I also will sometimes design drill to music, and I think drill has more impact if it flows with the music. I also like to do contrasting things (i.e. slow drill to fast music; fast drill to slow music), it just looks really cool if you do it with the right piece.
