About me
My name is Sam Wallace and I'm currently studying Music Industry at RMIT University in Melbourne, Australia (although I am English).
I just finished my Erasmus exchange in Granada, Spain and am looking for an internship in London for the rest of the year until I return to Australia.
Briefly about me: I finished school in Australia when I was 18 and returned to England, where I joined a band who I toured with for several years - playing drums and also managing the band. Thanks to this I picked up various skills and gained lots of experience in social media/marketing, general band management, recording/producing and also video editing, as I have created 5 different music videos for my bands new record.
I am mostly interested in everything to do with events, from finding/booking artists, to organising and marketing, and then, eventually, working the floor on the day.

Drum TeacherSam Wala
Melbourne, AustraliaFreelance
Private Drum Teacher: with students ranging from 5 years to 60 years of age I have gained experience in interacting with an eclectic range of personalities and temperaments. Each student has their own effective and efficient ways of learning which I have to help them discover, whilst also pushing them to their limits within the confines of their comfort zones, so that they can enjoy their experience and remain enthusiastic about learning.
