Rock journalist.
I'm a staff writer at Rockcor and a regular contributor to Crusher Magazine and Hardrock Haven .
Check my player for snippets of some of my interviews: Aerosmith, Slayer, Paul Gilbert,
Stone Sour and Type O Negative
The tune you are hearing on my player is called "Summer Lake". I wrote it and it features
me on acoustic guitar and my friend Max Dmitriev on a Les Paul jamming in my living
room in London. Writing and playing music are particularly suitable pastimes for music
journalists, I think... :)
My background is in art history and music: I studied at the Courtauld Institute of Art before doing
a post-graduate course in Music and Sound Technology at the Liverpool Institute for Performing Arts ,
which is also known as Paul McCartney’s Fame School.
After LIPA I became interested in copyright law, but despite graduating with a law degree from
the University of London in 2006, I have decided to go into rock journalism full-time in January 2007.
Live photography is something I'm spending more and more time doing these days. These shots
were taken in 2007 at Graspop festival in Dessel for Rockcor Magazine.
Those are from Aerosmith's exclusive gig at London's Hard Rock Cafe in February 2007, part of
the press launch of their first in 8 years European tour.
Christine Natanael, the editor of Crusher Magazine, has sent me on some of my best assignments
recently, and here are some shots I've done for her over the last few months.
These are of Apocalyptica in London earlier this year, one of the best shows I've been to in 2008 so far.
Taken a few hours after I've interviewed the band backstage for Crusher.

Another great assignment from Christine was in interview with Ratt - the only band I've ever interviewed
that I'm a true fan of. Click here to read the feature and see below the pictures I've taken a few hours after
the interview during their show at London's Astoria.
