About Me
Additional Projects
I am a fourth-year BSc Sound Design student at Edinburgh Napier University looking for working in video game audio. With a foundation in audio programming and creative coding for sound from three years in the BSc Acoustics and Music Technology program at the University of Edinburgh, I decided to pivot to Sound Design to unite my technical skills with my passion for gaming. I would love to work with any aspect of game audio, be it sound design, implementation, or audio programming.
Beyond game audio I'm deeply passionate about music, and currently playing bass and guitar in multiple bands. I believe this background enriches my approach, blending technical expertise with musical intuition and creative teamwork skills.
When I'm not working towards my degree, you'll find me cooking up a storm in my kitchen, at band practice, birdwatching, or pouring hours into the latest RPG/indie/Rougelike to catch my eye.
