I am a composer, lyricist, and musical director based in Glasgow. I am a graduate of Cambridge University and the Royal Conservatoire of Scotland, where I trained in musical directing. My work is focussed on new musical theatre, both in my own musicals, and as an arranger and music supervisor for new work across the UK, recently working on developments with Louis Barabbas and Andy McGregor.

I am the winner of the 2026 David MacLennan Award, with my new musical Magnificat, which will be produced by A Play, A Pie, And A Pint in Spring 2027.

In August, I was composer of Technical Difficulties, a BYMT production for the Hull Truck Theatre. The production received two 5-star reviews, withe one reviewer declaring “my ghasts are truly flabbered that the show has its own original score of absolute bangers.” For the Edinburgh Fringe 2026, my own company Matchstick Productions produced a two hander by myself and Mairead Dunsmore called The Perfect Match. The music has been described on MusicalTalkUK as “harmonically rich” and “evocative of Sondheim”.

Recent musical directing work includes: Drive Lounge (Fonn Mór, 2026), Aladdin (Bard in the Botanics/Byre Theatre, 2025), The Glasgow Poisoner (A Play A Pie And A Pint, 2025), Savoy! Everybody’s Doing It (NP&Joy Productions, 2024).
