About me

I am currently Senior Lecturer in Music Technology – Composition and Performance (fractional 0:5) and joined as a permanent member of staff in May 2013; prior to this I was an Associate Lecturer, developing and teaching the first Creative Music Technology Composition and Performance module in 2007. I also work for the Open University and Trinity Laban Conservatoire of Music and Dance, and am currently an external examiner for Cardiff University School of Music Masters (composition and performance) modules.

My specialism is writing music with a focus on commissioned compositions mainly for live performances. Several of my works have been recently broadcast on national radio and commercially recorded. I am also a performing musician (horn, percussion, piano).

My research has included working with OpenUp Music (www.openupmusic.org), a charity whose mission is to make orchestras accessible to young disabled musicians, and in May 2015 I was awarded a UWE Faculty of Environment and Technology Public Engagement and Outreach Award which enabled me to research repertoire and new composition for the inaugural South West Open Youth Orchestra, culminating in a performance at Bristol Cathedral featured on BBC The One Show. In 2016 I was awarded the UWE Computer Science and Creative Technology Researcher of the Year Award.
