My work in community-building, writing and project managing successfully funded projects totals over a million pounds to date. From forming initial concepts and scope; researching and collating data; writing applications and finance documents; to project management and evaluation; I have successfully managed funding applications for creative organisations and individuals from start to finish over the past eight years and counting.

15 years experience working in the live music industry as in-house booker and event manager for award-winning venue The Boileroom; I have a particular specialism of all aspects within the live music sector; and more broadly in the creative industries.

Specialising in funding for creative projects: live music programming, music festivals, dance and theatre productions, touring work, to book launches.

 My vision has a strong emphasis on growing existing communities, working with all-scale budgets, and helping them to flourish.
