I have been involved with music making since the age of 10 playing Euphonium for North Skelton Brass Band and studying music at school. I had a break in my studies to raise a family and began my higher education at the age of 33 and have been studying and working in eduction for 22 years. I specialise in interactive music design and have 7 permanent installation works called Theremin Bollards installed in the USA ,UK and Malaysia. I am currently researching Kinetic design affordances of synthesisers and I am collector of vintage analog synthesisers. I run several businesses within the creative industries.
