I'm a 19 year old student from a rural town in North Wales. I'm currently studying a degree in Photography for digital media at the University of Bradford. I pursued a degree in photography following my A-Levels in art and photography. I'm a fan of the arts and enjoy to paint and draw as well as my Photography.

I'm ambitious and want to explore the world and am using my love for photography as a tool to do so. I'm a fan of all photography but I'd say my favourites inlclude urban photography such as the likes of Paul McMullin and Ronya Galka. I also really enjoy music photography work from the likes of Bob Gruen whose work I've always admired and hopefully one day I get the opportunity to photograph music as I'm a massive music fan.

As for music, my love for it covers numerous decades and enjoy a variety of different genres, the likes of of Otis Redding, Wilson Pickett, Little Richard, Paul Weller, The Specials, Manic Street Preachers, Miles Kane and Rudimental being just a few names.

My dream would be to get the opportunity to photograph music, and reading the likes of the NME (which unfortunately doesn't run anymore) always inspired me to chase after a job in that industry.

Music and Photography aside I'm a very keen football fan, Everton being my preferred team, I travel weekly around the country with my dad, brother and a couple of mates, unfortunately they're frustrating to watch at the moment.
