About me
I'm a music graduate from Edinburgh. Upon graduating, I moved to Paris in 2015 and lived there for two and a half years. The majority of that time I spent working in a private after school music program which I became a key part of due to the small size of the team. I have just moved to London in August 2018 and I'm looking to find work in the music industry. Anything from composing to live sound and industry positions.
I'm very driven and its this attitude that in the past, has allowed me to move abroad and start a new life for example. Attention to detail is a definite trait of mine as well as organisation and time management. I'm always up for a challenge no matter what it takes which means I rarely give up!
Projects
- Rock U - ParisAn after school music program aimed at children and adults, allowing students to explore new instruments and learn to play with others. I joined the year they found a fixed address in Paris. I had many roles due to it being a small team but primarily was acting as a teaching assistant or group leader.

- Paris, FranceFull Time
I was a teacher in a private music school in the centre of Paris. Here I was responsible for assisting the running of band sessions as well as leading my own sessions each week. This required a lot of forward planning and understanding of many students in order to provide sessions that were beneficial and fun for everyone involved.

BA Popular Music Performance
I studied here as a bass player and composer primarily. It allowed me to develop my compositional skills greatly, as well as exposing me to many different genres of music. The greatest thing about my degree is that it showed me how to continue to teach myself once I had graduated.
