About Me
I am an experienced instrumental teacher and performer based in Meanwood, Leeds.
I started Piano lessons at the age of 6 then a few years later I took up Drum lessons. I have performed in Rock bands, Big bands, Jazz bands, Percussion ensembles, Brass bands, Orchestras, Funk bands and Musicals. I have toured and performed in continents around the world including Asia, the U.S. and Europe.
​
I studied at Leeds College of Music and specialised in Drums, Piano and Composition.
​
In addition to performing I love to teach and for the last 27 years have successfully taught many students privately, and in schools and universities across West Yorkshire. I am committed to providing high quality tuition, personalised to each individual.
