In 2016, he received a set of pipes and his piping dream turned true. He joined the Lemania band soon after to develop his skills as quickly as possible. His first pipe band competition at the Dundonald Highland Games really made a click for him in watching other bands. More good feelings occurred when he got involved in the Avenches Tattoo.
