I have had the pleasure of performing at World and European Saxophone Congresses as well as at the RNCM and CCCU Saxophone Days. I have recorded a number of solo and chamber albums, which have been played on BBC Radio 3, on which I have also performed live.

I am a City Music Foundation Artis, Park Lane Group Artist, BBC Introducing Artist, Live Music Now Artist, a Freeman of the Worshipful Company of Musicians, and have won awards from the Countess of Munster Musical Trust, RNCM and St. Catharine’s College.
I am a performing artist for Henri Selmer Paris Saxophone and Vandoren Reeds UK.

I have had the pleasure of playing with orchestras including Philharmonia Orchestra, London Contemporary Orchestra and Royal Ballet Sinfonia as well as with jazz ensembles at Montreux and London Jazz Festivals and other jazz clubs across Europe.
