Bio

I am very active as a performer mainly working in the jazz genre. I perform regularly around the UK and beyond. With my own projects I have performed all over the world from Rochester Jazz Festival in New York to Shanghai Jazz Festival to Ronnie Scotts Jazz Club to opening for Joshua Redman at the Barbican Concert Hall.

I also have a passion for teaching having held a visiting tutor position at Trinity College of Music as well as being a saxophone and recorder teacher at Kew Music Service.

I have released multiple albums under my own name and was also the youngest recipient of the Spike Robinson Saxophone Award. My album ‘Scenes and Sounds’ with contemporary band Partikel was nominated in the ‘album of the year’ category at the Parliamentary Jazz Awards.

Teaching Info

I am experienced at teaching all levels. I have taught complete beginners and trained them through the Associated Board and Guildhall Grading syllabuses as well as students looking to apply to music college. I have prepared many students successfully for entry to Middlesex University, Guildhall School of Music and Trinity College of Music. I also have students who are retired and who have taken up the saxophone as a hobby. I like to tailor each lesson to suit the needs and approach of the student. Some students excel in having a framework to work in towards exams and gradings and that is great but I also respect that this is not for everyone. Some of my students work and progress outside of this system. I make sure we are always progressing by choosing material and subjects to study together with the student.
