Programme Leader: BA (Hons) Creative Music Technology

Biography

Prior to commencing a career in teaching in 1998, I worked as a professional session musician (bass guitar) and musical director. I have toured extensively throughout the UK, Europe and worldwide working for organisations such as Mecca, Rank, The Hilton Hotel Group and P&O. I have also worked for numerous theatre companies as a pit musician and musical director.

Alongside a career as a professional musician, I also worked as a studio engineer, producer and as an artist and repertoire representative.

My main areas of interest include sound design, composing for film and TV, electro acoustic composition and technology driven performance. I am currently studying towards an MMus postgraduate qualification in Creative Music Technology focusing on sound design and music composition for moving image, performance technology and open structures in the design of computer based performance environments.

I'm an Apple Certified Logic Studio Master Trainer and was also awarded the coveted status of Ableton Certified Trainer in 2009. I therefore deliver certified accredited music production and performance software training to all students enrolled on the programme of study.
