I have been involved in the music business for over 35 years as a studio engineer and later specialising more in restoring and mastering recordings. I work for both individual artists and record labels. I have a strong interest in helping to promote music and also helping people with music technology – particularly as a moderator on the Sound On Sound forum. I also have an electronic engineering and computing background which helps me to make sense of much of the new technology that it constantly emerging.

I’m a Fleet-based Craft Business Strategist, multidisciplinary maker and creative facilitator, with a specialism in textiles and yarn-based crafts and over 25 years of making & business experience. I work with craft & creative business owners to build sustainable income through smarter visibility and multiple revenue streams.
