About

I graduated with a bachelor’s degree in Film and Media Production from Sheffield Hallam University in 2011, specialising in sound. Since then, I have gone on to hone my skills working as an audio professional on various films, television programmes and collaborative multimedia projects.

With a wealth of experience in audio post-production, I also work as a freelance sound designer for Big Finish Productions, making substantial contributions to their ranges of officially-licensed audio dramas, including properties such as Doctor Who and Blake’s 7.

In 2014, I completed a PGCE at Sheffield Hallam University and began teaching sound production at various institutions in the region. In 2022, I gained an MA in Fine Art from the University of Lincoln, where I currently work as a Senior Lecturer in Film and Television Sound. I am an AVID certified Pro Tools instructor, and continue to practice and research in the field of moving image and sound.
