INTERESTS & OTHER THINGS
I am a musician and songwriter and am passionate about the music industry. I have worked in and
played music all of my life and am currently finishing a solo album. I love to DJ rocknroll music and
am on the permanent roster in Sweeneys, Dame St. I have years of design work under my belt, of all
types, from flyers and album covers to photography and websites (see above for link). I have played
in many bands over the years, including The Popes. I recently achieved a City & Guilds Level 2
qualification in studio sound from The Academy Of Sound. I am very computer savvy, a good multi-
tasker, highly motivated and a fast learner. I speak basic Spanish and love travelling
