Forever Independent
Soundskills Studio
I have worked out of Soundskills Studio since September 2018, and it has become my primary base for recording, production, mentoring, and artist development. My involvement has developed from early volunteering into a self-employed role under Daniel Squires and Jamie O’Connor, and since 2024 I have run the studio independently following their departure. In this capacity, I am responsible for the day-to-day running of the space, including studio equipment, promotion, online presence, and supporting artists through the recording and production process.
