Likes – unhealthily obsessed with mother earth, wildlife, angry cars, my beloved cat, cinema, audio, all forms of art, and everything STEM.
Experience – I have been sat behind instruments, and in studios, for as long as I can remember. I genuinely think I was playing drums before I could fully understand how to walk. Growing up in and around the arts, I have come to live and breathe it. It makes its way into absolutely everything I do, and I couldn’t possibly live without it.
At the age of 16, I found myself steering away from playing instruments so often, and towards a far more technical side of things. I fell in love with spending time in studios, and time behind the camera. It’s been the same ever since, and I wouldn’t change it for the world. I’ve been lucky enough to work as a professional audio engineer, and multi-faceted freelance artist, alongside countless wonderful people, since 2020.
I studied at the Confetti Institute of Creative Technologies, for an L3 BTEC in Audio Engineering & Acoustical Science, before voluntarily withdrawing myself from study, to take more of a ‘nose to the grindstone’ approach to building my career… and thankfully, that paid off!
