Initially I was a technician at the University of Hertfordshire before moving into lecturing on both UG and PG courses. My role surrounded the development and usage of UH's flagship studio which at the time housed an SSL AWS900+ console on which I taught and covered a lot of practical hands-on methods for production and recording techniques. It is here that I also studied a BSc Electronic Music, an MSc Composition and Technology and a postgraduate teaching qualification in Learning and Teaching in Higher Education. I specialised in Ableton Live and Logic Pro and am also an Apple Certified TrainerI have been involved in a number of collaborative projects through the years. These include the production of various bands, experimental music performances, sound design for moving image and anything else that I see as fun to doI used to produce and play drums in BBC Folk Award nominated Mawkin and was a breakbeat DJ under the moniker DivertedI am an endorser of C&C Custom Drums and Istanbul Cymbals
