It was around 2012 that I started creating music and experimenting with different software, producing mainly electronic music in many different forms. Since then, I’ve created countless personal projects, headlined local festivals and DJ’d at various events.

Reigate College was a great place to study Music Technology – the recording and editing facilities are amazing and there were many opportunities to get involved with music related events alongside like-minded people. It gave me a solid foundation in Music Technology and helped me develop the skills needed for university.

I loved the sense of community at College and made a lot of friends through my studies, as we shared the same passions for music and media. I still keep in contact with them today.

By obtaining work experience over time, I developed my skills further. I’ve been a sound engineer at live events; done video editing for Unilever and worked as a post-production assistant for global media company Moonbug Entertainment.

Currently, I’m working as a Producer and Editor for Headstuff (The Podcast Studios) based in Dublin, Ireland. During my time here, I’ve produced material for clients such as Paddy Power, Aldi, SEAI, MET Met Éireann and various parties within the Irish Government.

What I enjoy about my work is meeting the clients, understanding their needs and recording audiovisual content to fit the brief. In my role, I’m always finding opportunities to progress my skills in media production, whether in audio, video or image editing.

In the long term, I would like to be involved in audio design, mixing, and music compositions, but my passion for media makes me open to any venture within the industry.
