About me

I am a committed, reliable and creative individual with over 15 years’ experience in audio engineering, sound production, composition, client relations, project management, correspondence and written communication.

I'm an award-winning musician, composer and producer from London. Now based out of my Berlin studio, I write and produce compositions for Television, Films and Advertising. I play a wide variety of instruments from acoustic/electric guitar and keyboard to the trumpet and accordion.

I have released two EPs with my band Great Danes, including a collaboration with Grammy Award-winning artist Kimbra.

An accomplished session guitar player, I have played with such acts as Travis and Mogli, as well as having worked with producers in sessions across studios worldwide.
