About

I’m a prolific singer-songwriter, performing artist, and event manager with a passion for storytelling through melody. I cut my teeth in the London and Los Angeles scenes, writing across folk, rock, country, and pop, and I bring a collaborative spirit to every project.

Over the past 7+ years I have written, recorded, produced, and promoted music for emerging artists and commercial releases, hosted open-mic nights, and managed band activities. I’m driven to apply creative professionalism to new opportunities and help projects thrive in vibrant music communities.
