About
I am a working class, Disabled creative operating at the intersections of access and music. I founded T4Tunes, a DIY music project providing inclusive and sustainable gigging and label distribution for the trans+ community. I only work with wheelchair accessible venues, and build access into events. I take pride in organising live music spaces for my community and have had sold out gigs in 4 countries. Alongside this, I have worked in production and accessibility roles across music festivals of 100 to 25,000 capacity.
As a Trustee with AMP, I make up only 3% of UK Trustees under 30 and bring my personal and professional experience of Disability, ensuring our projects are reaching communities often overlooked in the music education sector. Everything I work on is rooted in care and collaboration. The future of the arts must be sustainable, accessible and inclusive. Intersectionality is integral to my work. I promote the social model of Disability and deeply value Disability justice.
Project Goals for the next 6-12 Months
Festival/venue programming, mentoring, workshop facilitation, outdoor events, public speaking
