Presently I teach 16 - 19 year olds who have a visual impairment and profound learning disabilities. I also play the organ and lead our parish choir to support the liturgy each sunday.

Whilst at music college I wrote my dissertation on programmatic aspects of Biber's Rosary Sonatas for violin and continuo. Biber only lived up the road from where you.
