Bio:
I grew up in a small village in South Yorkshire, England and began playing the piano at the age of two. My family came from humble means and my father died when I was fourteen. This greatly impacted all of us–I graduated from prestigious Durham University and worked with an accomplished team at a world-renowned Investment Bank. I walked out of this job to literally perform on the street to thousands in London. I chose to pursue a career I found personally fulfilling and re-immersed myself in piano, art and the power of music. I’ve played in over 60 countries and participated in events ranging from private functions for some of the world’s most wealthy and powerful, to the largest outdoor concert in Uzbekistan's history. I continue to perform live, and now have an on-line academy which can help students learn and experience the power and joy of piano and music.
