​I have been playing saxophones for 50 years. I qualified as a music teacher from St Mary's University College, London and taught in both secondary and further education. I specialise in alto and soprano saxophones and bring years of performance skills to my teaching. I have led and played in Big Bands, Jazz Combo's, Musical Theatre Orchestras, and various ensembles as well as a soloist.

I provide lessons for beginners to more advanced players and do so from either my home based studio situated between Inverness & Nairn in the Highlands of Scotland or at other venues to suit the individual learner. I also offer coaching in individual and ensemble performance, this can range from taking practice sessions to full rehearsals and band leading. 

I also teach on the Animari Partnership Ltd., Music Exploration and Creative Journeys Project. 

Animari Partnership Ltd is a unique social enterprise developing new ways of working as a ‘profit for purpose’ business creating communities of interest and purpose where values and actions come together for the greater good.

I am registered with www.musicteacher.co.uk and subscribe to The Music Education Code of Practice. 

I have an enhanced disclosure with the Disclosure & Barring Service in England and Disclosure Scotland with a current PVG scheme membership.
