I’ve been in Oxford on and off since 2010 and have now made it my home. I have fond memories of seeing both local and touring bands in Oxford over the years at grassroots music venues and I’m really motivated to ensure that the scene continues to thrive!

I’ve been part of founding many place-based co-operatives and community businesses in Oxford, including Makespace Oxford and The Children’s Allotment and have first-hand experience of business and organisational development. I currently work as a Co-operative Development Advisor with Co-operative Futures. 

I’m learning to play the mandolin and have enjoyed the friendly folk and community music scene as a beginner. I also sing non-professional with friends in an acapella group.
