I am an alumni from Edge Hill University and graduated in July 2026 with a first class honours in Music Production. I am a classically-trained musician that got my start as a self-taught pianist and have had great success as a performer and was able to win the title of Jersey's 2022 Young Musician of the Year. At university, I became much more focused on composition and arranging and have experience working with live sound and composing to film/video. I ended up enjoying my arrangement module so much that it became the topic of my 3rd year dissertation project where I rearranged Evanescence's song "Bring Me To Life" in five different genres and ensembles and explored the creative effects that this would have on the music. I would love to be able to expand my horizons into the possibilities of game composition and also to further my arrangement capabilities with my clients.
