Information Technology Skills
Hardware I have experience working on Windows systems XP and Vista, Apple Macs and I am comfortable working on a wide variety of Mixing Desks, Sampling machines and external Effects Racks
Software I have a high understanding of all Office Programs including word processing, spread sheets and presentation software. I also have an extensive knowledge of Logic, Reason and Ableton Live, and am very competent on Cubase, Sibelius, Soundforge and Vegas Pro.
I also have experience and skills in HTML web editing and website creating/ maintenance.
In my current role, I learned very quickly the custom database that places our orders and keeps track of our music files as well as the database that queues the music on the system on the Hospital radio.
Personal Skills
Communication Working in groups at University and working closely with the Music Department at New College has increased my communication skills.
Teamwork In my current role and at University I enjoyed being an active member in many groups and enjoy working with others to accomplish the goals set.
During my time at Wesley Music I have also been heavily involved in the recruitment process as well as the training of new employees.
Time-management All my assignments whether it is at work, college or university have needed to be completed to strict deadlines. Therefore, I have become very good at time-management.
Interests and Activities
Internet Radio I am currently in the process of setting up my own internet radio stream. The most important thing for me with radio is the diversity in the music that can be played. I feel it is important to not play only one genre of music, but to play a wide varied mix to keep people interested. In preparation of this I spend a lot of time researching music as well as creating play lists to experiment with what music works well together.
Music Production I have been producing my own music for many years, and have used my time at University to improve my production skills and hone my skills in many differing genres.
Choir I started singing and singing as a Tenor in a choir whilst I was
2004- Present studying Music at College. I have since toured with my College to Paris; singing in Notre Dame, to Tuscany; where we sang Easter Day Mass on Italian Television, and most recently to Bruges; where we sang at the Last Post at the Menin Gate. Since being at University I have also joined one of England’s largest semi- professional choirs, the Brighton Festival Chorus. I also sing in various bands and have been used as a session singer in the past.
Keyboard and Piano Playing the piano has lead me to have a greater understanding of
1993 - Present music theory and has also allowed me to compose many songs both for myself and for others. I have also extended my musical knowledge by teaching myself the bass guitar and I am currently learning the electric guitar.
Cricket I have played cricket for a few different local teams including my district and have enjoyed playing from under 9 level to present day.
