"To have been awarded the Leverhulme bursary (by Guildhall School), has assisted me to no end in my musical career. The opportunities it opened has led me on a diverse musical journey... none of which would have been possible without the support of this bursary, which I truly believe has shaped my path as a musician and composer, and pushed me to achieve the highest level I can.”
