I am a Sydney based contemporary music composer, arranger and landscape photographer. My interest in the creative arts began at an early age, nurtured by an extended family with musical talents. I was raised and educated in the New England region of the New South Wales, which has been a wealth of inspiration both artistic and musically.

During my time at the University of New England, Armidale. I completed a Bachelor of Music (with an extended major in Ethnomusicology), Post Graduate Diploma of Education and an offer to undertake an honours degree in composition. My compositions were performed to high acclaim in the Armidale region.

I taught high school music for the next fifteen years and travelled internationally, using this time to research cultural music styles focusing on Middle Eastern, Asian and Oceania. In 2009 I retired from teaching due to medical reasons, which provided time to focus on composition and photography projects in detail.

Across all of my creative works I strive to illuminate qualities that often go unnoticed by the casual observe in the beauty of natures landscapes.
