I am an independent freelance musician based in Birmingham, UK and I work as a teacher, conductor, composer and performer
As a performer I have worked all over the UK and in Europe and for many different projects from school bands to the West End and from home studios to BBC Radio. I also won the Best Trombonist award at the 2005 BBC Big Band Contest.
I arrange and compose music for all situations including educational beginner music, advanced solo works and music for diverse ensembles from salsa and function bands to orchestras and school groups. I have works on the current Bass Trombone syllabus Grade 6 and 7 for the ABRSM.
I greatly enjoy conducting and I am currently musical director of the Coventry University Big Band and the Sandwell Youth Jazz Orchestra. Teaching music performance and composition is a passion that sees me working with pupils of all ages and standards across the Midlands.
