About
After graduating with a BA in Music in 2011, I spent my early career working as a tutor, performer and composer. Later I became an examiner (RSL / Yamaha), and went on to write a piano education book. In 2022 I completed an MSc in Music For Screen, a course which introduced me to the exciting world of software development - sparking a new direction. Today I build commercial digital products for writers, while teaching piano to budding musicians locally.

Author
This isn’t a textbook. It’s a creative journey that teaches you piano through composition, improvisation, and musical thinking - not repetition. You’ll write your own pieces, build musical instincts, and develop real fluency - even if you’re starting from scratch.
