Music professional:
I am a young composer and music producer from Bedfordshire, England. Previously studying music performance at Bedford school of arts, with a focus on the guitar and keyboards, I am currently in my third year studying Music Composition for Film at the University of Hertfordshire. After plying my craft on various promotional videos, and recently composing music for a Ghost Light Theatre Group promotion campaign, https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=UBVj1xYp4fc ) aired at the 2016 Edinburgh Fringe Festival, I am now venturing into film composing, most recently scoring short film 'I Am God and Severely Underqualified', by the talented young director Theo Gee. http://www.imdb.com/title/tt5966478/
The latest project I am working on is a feature film, which will be released worldwide in April 2017.

My music has been described as wistful and melancholic, with a strong emotional resonance. Drawing influences from the romantic era and minimalism, as well as the neo-classical and ambient genres. I feel I am, however, equally adept at writing music in other styles, including rock/pop, orchestral, electronic and soundscape music. Aside from composing for film, I am currently recording my first studio album, with the concept of nostalgia and the subconscious mind, the instrumental concept album will be released in early to mid-2017.
Additional skills:
Composer, Music Producer, Sound Designer, Guitarist, Bassist & Keyboardist.
