Sound Design / Composition / Sonic Art
I am a
Sound Designer whose experience in professional audio work began in 2014. I enjoy
collaboratively developing creative approaches that are unique to the project at hand;
working as part of a team is a wonderful way to collectively achieve more than the sum of individual efforts, and I highly value the process of inter-dependently developing work to find
innovative and compelling ways to tell stories.
The variety and extent of my previous experience has given me
a wide range of skills and creative approaches to draw upon in responding to any project,
from development through to final delivery. I am excited by any role that offers the opportunity
to apply and further develop these skills.
I have
managed post-production sound teams
to create
compelling and unique sound design through collaborative development of our creative work. I also have experience as the sole post-production sound worker, and I am
comfortable taking responsibility for any aspect of the sound design process, in film and beyond. I have composed music for projects ranging from
film to live theatre and dance, and my musical works have been
played and awarded internationally.
In September 2025 I submitted
a practice-led PhD research project at De Montfort University (currently awaiting final review) exploring
integrated approaches to film sound design, supervised by Professor Bret Battey and Dr. Simon Atkinson. This is an approach that encourages
collaborative inter-responsive creative work across the creative team, helping to ensure that all elements of the film are interwoven in service to telling the story at hand.
As part of this research, I organised a two-month placement with Sound Designer Peter Albrechtsen, during which I gained invaluable experience into innovative creative practices at the forefront of modern sound design.
