Substantial, creative and well-composed written content.
I originally trained as a classical musician, attending the Junior Royal Academy of Music. I also have a BMus and a PhD from the University of Birmingham, England. My musical studies have given me a high level of self-discipline, a refined aesthetic sense and a keen eye for detail.
I have experience working in education, from teaching at university level to organising and running summer workshops for children. I am therefore very familiar with academic writing and speaking styles, as well as in designing course outlines, planning lessons and fulfilling curriculum requirements.
Alongside this, I have spent many years specialising in audio editing, sound design and sound recording. This range of experiences has allowed me to cultivate a high level of organizational skills and the ability to adhere to tight deadlines. I have a love of working with language in general, and I enjoy diving into the richness found in existential and philosophical research.
I am passionate about nature and self-sufficiency, and have undertaken training in this area over the last few years. I recently completed a six week long course in order to receive my Permaculture Design Certificate, as well as a year long masterclass in tree and plant identification. I have also attended a week long practical elementary bushcraft course and a weekend seminar on fruit tree pruning. I have volunteered at various organic small holdings, and through this I learnt the skills necessary to grow all of my own herbs and vegetables
I have a long term interest in meditation and mindfulness. I recently attended a silent Vipassana retreat which entails 100 hours of seated meditation. I have also spent time at a Buddhist monastery and attended breathwork and mindfulness retreats. I have my own daily meditation practice and view mindfulness and the ability to be comfortable in silence as core skills for personal growth and development.
