About me

I am an experienced Sound Engineer who specialises in Studio and Live Sound. I graduated with a first class degree from the University of South Wales, and I am currently studying MA Advanced Music Technology at the University of West London.

I began studying classical guitar at the age of 13 in Italy and gained a Diploma after a 10 year course, which included modules such as sight reading, ear training and music history. My studies culminated in a one hour solo performance, being evaluated on the technical proficiency of classical guitar.

As I was performing and recording musical pieces, my attention moved into sound and acoustics. Sound Engineering grew from an interest to a passion, especially as I began to research how technology is evolving and enabling different sound possibilities and avenues.

I knew it was important to learn more, so I moved to UK to pursue the Sound Engineering degree at the University of South Wales. During my studies I was involved in numerous projects thanks to my developed skills and determination. I worked with various artists, emerging and established bands in the industry; learning numerous skills in the Studio and in the live event industry.

My expertise and passion brought me to work in numerous venues and theatres across the UK, gaining new skills from the modern industry of audio engineering.

I am currently based in London studying MA Advanced Music Technology at the University of West London, focusing on Sound Design, Recording and Live Sound.
