For the past 20 years, Gary has been mentoring teens through one-on-one work and through leading youth groups, Vision Quests and drumming circles. Gary’s work supports teens and gives them tools they can use to support themselves through the challenges that adolescence can present.

Gary leads drumming circles with grade school and high school aged children in both school and church group settings. He donates his time in these settings to teach children through the use of story telling, drumming and singing. His teaching reconnects children to their own beauty and the beauty of the world around them. It also offers them tools for increased well being and for managing their fears.
