I am a popular music researcher based at University College Dublin’s School of Music and the lead for Improvising Across Boundaries. As part of previous research teams, I have worked in partnership with music festivals in Ireland and the UK, to include TradFest, Cork International Choral Festival, Cheltenham Jazz Festival, and Edinburgh Jazz and Blues Festival. I have also run zine workshops as part of Ideas of Noise and Supersonic, both in Birmingham (UK). I have published books on northern soul (2019 and 2020) and co-edited Towards Gender Equality in the Music Industries (Bloomsbury 2019). I hold several editorial roles and run writing and research workshops for students, academics, music industry professionals, and music fans.

It all begins with an idea. Maybe you want to launch a business. Maybe you want to turn a hobby into something more. Or maybe you have a creative project to share with the world. Whatever it is, the way you tell your story online can make all the difference.
