I work in parallel as a professional composer, musician and short film maker as well as composing for theatre and various ensembles. I began devising workshops using music and the voice to help people discover their creative potential and realised the collaborative approach inherent in many art and music practices could easily translate into other settings. Invitations to apply these approaches in a range of areas of work and community life outside of the arts provided me with exciting opportunities to explore and develop them for organisations in the Private and NGO sectors.
In 2003 I trained as a Performance Coach with Newcastle College, was introduced to the discipline of Neuroscience and saw its extraordinary potential to fast track people through transition, change and development, whilst empowering them with the knowledge of why we think and act the way we do, why so many of the habits that shape us do not always serve us now - and how to successfully free ourselves from unwanted patterns of behaviour and replace them with new ones that reflect the person we wholeheartedly wish to be.
My work has taken me into many interesting fields including the Arts, Corporate Business, Public Sector Organisations, Not-for-Profit organisations and the Third Sector. My approach is to always work to my clients' needs and employ a range of techniques and methodologies to ensure that all issues and concerns are dealt with in a way that enables them to embrace the future and their path towards it.
I believe that the key issue behind any success is the health & well-being of an individual, both physical and emotional which, when aggregated, translates into healthy teams, companies and organisations.
I apply a mindful approach to my own life and in my approach to working with clients. I believe that this will provide the basis for a future where we can live, work and play creatively, in harmony with each other, and
all life on this planet.
