• When did you first develop a passion for music and your favorite instrument?

  I started playing guitar and really becoming interested in music when I was about 10 or 11. My brother was picking up drumming around the same time so we played a lot together!

• Is there a particular type of music or artist that you listen to on a loop without it driving you crazy?

  What I'm listening to is always changing honestly, so it's hard to give just one genre! Sometimes it's indie rock, sometimes it's pop, sometimes it's electronic, or country, or hiphop.

• Explain to us the most difficult or riveting course you could personally give to a student of music.

  The best course I could give someone is really how to write & produce music from the ground up. Starting with a melody or lyric or sound idea in your head, and getting all the way to a professional sounding finished product you could release on Spotify or Apple Music.

• What do you think is the most complicated instrument to master and why?

  Respect to the drummers out there!! I'm always impressed by a good drummer.

• What are your keys to success?

  The only one is to love what you're doing. If you really enjoy it, you will want to do it all the time, and "practicing" won't even be how you view it!

• Name three musicians you dream of meeting in your favourite bar in the early hours of the morning. Explain why.

  Tough one, but let's go with… Nile Rodgers, Tom Misch, and Quincy Jones. All huge influences on me musically and all insanely talented in their own right.

• Provide a valuable anecdote related to music or your days at music school.

  In high school was when I really started playing in a band, and I remember always being so excited to play our annual "Battle of the Bands".

• What are the little touches that make you a Superprof in music?

  I think I have an easy time relating to each student individually and finding ways to phrase/explain things in a way that makes sense to the student. I'm not one to overcomplicate things that don't need to be overcomplicated!
