Community Musician, Creative Practitioner, Facilitator, Sound Artist
Hello, I am the founder of Unique Music, a studio based in North Shields, developing and recording music one to one with participants.
I also work work across the North East of England as a freelancer, bringing music activities to individuals and communities.
I have a passion for delivering and developing accessible creative opportunities. I foster creativity and inclusivity by creating supportive and responsive spaces, enabling participants to explore and develop their creativity in ways that are meaningful for them.
I am a Neurodiversity Aware practitioner, with extensive experience of facilitating bespoke, adaptable and collaborative music and community arts sessions.
I specialise in supporting people with Autism, Learning Disabilities, Dementia and SEND, enabling people of all ages and abilities to create, play and record their own music their way.
Every music session is unique to the participants.
I was diagnosed as Autistic in 2022, music has always been important to me as a listener, experiencer and creator, as a place of safety, familiarity, connection and exploration.
