Summary

Although my work experience is relatively limited, I am keen to gain some more as soon as possible. I really enjoy working and communicating with others, as I quickly learn the fundamentals of the tasks at hand, which have proven to be incredibly helpful in the professional musical environments I have taken part in.

Bronze Duke of Edinburgh

Grade 8 Bass - Distinction

Music

In recent years, I have devoted significant time to becoming a musician. I managed to complete Grade 8 on the bass guitar within my first 18 months of playing it as a result of extreme hard work and consistent determination. I am currently working on the ATCL Trinity Diploma for bass, and will work constantly to ensure it is completed with the highest quality. Since then, I have taken part in many different ensembles in and out of school, with key highlights being the pit band of the 'Our House' whole school production and many smaller gigs at pubs organised by De Rosa. 

In the near future, I will be leading the junior ensemble at my school, which will involve mentoring the younger years, arranging music meeting theit needs, and hopefully inspiring them to take music further, no matter what level they are at.
