Personal Interests

My main hobbies lie within music, namely playing and recording. I play the
guitar in a band and play concerts in local towns with friends’ bands. We write,
produce and I record all of our own music as I have a great interest in sound
engineering as my BTEC shows. I also help out with other bands when I can,
recording demos and organizing local gigs. Other than music, I am into sports
and play squash and football regularly. Recently I have also taken an interest in
photography and I am able to tie this into my love for music by focusing
mainly on live music photography, but I am interested in branching out into other
areas as well.
