About Me

I have been playing piano for years, trained classically and self-taught in jazz. I started to take it seriously in Chambéry, France in 2003-4 during a languages degree at Cambridge University. Since graduating in 2005 I've been in London, practising and exploring the jazz scene. I play in a number of small jazz groups, couple of big bands, a hip-hop/jazz fusion outfit and a live funky house band.
