I'm a songwriter, producer, recording, mixing/mastering engineer. I enjoy all things related to music/audio. Every project is different and demands a different skill set, thats the beauty of it!
My musical journey began after moving here, performing as a touring and session musician with incredible artists like Nubiyan Twist, Nick Mulvey, Blanco White, Andrew Ashong, and Rosie Turton. Studying at Leeds College of Music helped me develop skills in recording, songwriting, producing, music directing, and mixing/mastering, influenced by world music, folk, hip-hop, R&B, and beyond.
Some highlights of my career include live sessions at Abbey Road Studio 2 (Malena Zavala), performing for La Blogothèque (Nick Mulvey), Glastonbury’s West Holts stage (Nubiyan Twist), and Jools Holland (Nubiyan Twist). A standout moment was contributing vocals to Blue Note Records’ "Blue Note Re:imagined" collection.
In the studio, I wear multiple hats as a songwriter, producer, music director, and recording/mixing engineer, working with artists like Blanco White, Harrison Storm, Beatenberg, and Lea Kay. Most recently, I created tracks for Red Bull’s 2025 BC One competition in Rio de Janeiro, commissioned by Northern Hawk Media.
I’m passionate about collaborating with inspiring artists, exploring new challenges, and pushing the boundaries of creativity. Music is a journey, and every project is an opportunity to learn, grow, and connect with audiences worldwide.
