About Me

I am a creative, determined and ambitious individual who has an exceptional passion and enthusiasm for music and entertainment. Having recently completed my Secondary Music PGCE, however I am looking for an opportunity which will allow me to demonstrate my excellent entertaining, musical and comedic/improvisational skills.

Employment History & Experience

I have been in bands with friends from University, Newcastle College and Heaton Manor School and also members of staff whilst on placement at various schools. I have performed at many venues across the North East, including Newcastle City Hall and the Live Theatre and I practice instruments including drum kit, untuned percussion, electric guitar, acoustic guitar, bass guitar and wish to start singing and piano lessons in the near future. I also enjoy writing songs at home in my spare time using music technology software Cubase and Sibelius 6. I am constantly looking for bands/artists to work with both for recording and performing live.
