Currently undertaking a Doctor of Creative Arts in orchestral composition at Western Sydney University (commenced 2024)/ Doctor of Musical Arts at Sydney Conservatorium of Music (transfer in progress), I draw on over three decades of experience as a musician, composer, and educator. My research and creative practice aim to extend contemporary orchestral writing, informed by my diverse background in jazz, rock, classical, and film music. Early in my doctorate, I was awarded the 2024 Penrith Symphony Orchestra Composition Prize, leading to a commissioned symphonic work commemorating the Bondi Junction tragedy.

As a professional musician since 1992, I have composed and performed across multiple genres and contexts, from television and film to concert halls. My career includes international broadcasts of my compositions, film scoring, jazz collaborations, and early music performance. I have also taught students of all ages in composition, performance, and songwriting across instruments and styles.

My teaching philosophy centres on fostering creativity and individuality. Students are free to choose the instruments, songs, and styles of music that they wish to pursue. I believe that following one’s musical passions is the best path to excellence, and I nurture those interests with the support of sound technique, theory, and well-researched performance and compositional practices.

Holding a Master of Music (AIM) and Bachelor of Music (UNSW), I bring both academic depth and industry experience. Highlights include editing László Dubrovay’s 2021 treatise on contemporary composition, scoring the internationally recognised short film Little Lies, and having original songs featured on SBS’s Pizza.

Lessons are held in my air-conditioned studio located at 185-211 Broadway, Ultimo, opposite the Broadway Shopping Centre. Street parking is available as well as in the shopping centre parking station. My studio is a short walk from central station or there is a bus right to my door!

About the lesson

Lesson Structure:

Students are free to choose the instruments, songs, and styles of music that they wish to pursue. I believe is the best way to excel in music is being encouarged to follow ones musical passions. I aim to nurture those passions with the support of sound technique, theory, and well researched performance and compositional practices.

Lessons are individually tailored to meet the needs and goals of each student. This includes the hand transcribing of music that each student wishes to study.

I offer lessons on a weekly basis that are one hour in duration in order to faciliate these approaches . They usually involve half an hour of technical and theoretical work followed by half an hour of musical practice. This can be either playing or composing. Some students choose to see me for two hours a week to draw more benefit from both the technical and practical aspects mentioned, allowing an hour for each component. This, however, this is up to the individual in terms of time and cost.

Philosophy:

I am known for my unlimited patience and dedicated persistence in seeing my students attain their goals.
Whilst being friendly and encouraging I also strive for excellence with each student, striving to push them to the best of their abilities.

I allow myself to be guided by the students’ unique musical journey rather than trying to steer them, however I can offer guidance when needed.

I understand that my students have different external pressures and recognise that practise outside of lessons can sometimes be difficult, if not impossible. I am happy to work with students who either practise a lot, little, or even not at all between lessons. The main thing is that my students should find their lives enriched by their involvement with music. Our approach, however, I believe should always be professional, no matter how much or little time we have, as the more we respect music, the greater the rewards.
