About me
I'm a music professional who specialises in sound design and electronic music production. My musical compositions and approach to sound design, challenges the traditional way that sound is approached by using studio and post productions techniques to blend elements of electric guitars, synthesis, location recordings and noise.I Studied Music Technology at Sussex Downs College and have just graduated from the London College of Music with a 1st Class Honours in Music Technology. Throughout the five years of studying this subject, I have learned many different skills in mixing, mastering, recording, composition, synthesis, live sound, sound design, post-production, pro tools and software design.
Shortly after finishing my degree, I got a job at the world famous Metropolis Studios. Here I started from the bottom and slowly worked my way up in the company by working multiple roles from studio running, receptionist and assistant engineering. I have worked with some of the biggest artists in the music industry and have developed a professional outlook of working in a high-pressured environment and thinking carefully about each complex set up we run.
