About me
Multi-disciplined creative based in Nérac in South West France, will travel for projects. Restoring a small mansion house in Nérac, South West France to become creative residential retreat, Studio Faire. Doors open in Spring 2018. Http://www.studiofaire.fr Graphic & web designer, photographer & drummer based in Nérac, Lot-et-Garonne. Have recently acquired my first camera drone. In a nutshell: Spent my 20s as a photographer for The Face, The List, Dance & Theatre companies while playing drums in indie bands in the earnest search of a record deal and music based career. Bought a Mac in 1993... Spent my 30s involved in web, IOS Apps, music industry & TV projects. Spending my 40s decluttering, de-stressing and being generally more focussed on a small set of hellishly important personal goals.
