About
I am:
A 30 something ‘writer-in-waiting’…
Not sure what I am waiting for, but this may be a step in the right direction. Possibly taking me from a noun to an adjective…*
A Song Writer – I have been writing in one way or another since my early childhood. From memory, my first attempt at song writing was when I was around 14 – it’s possible that amongst my numerous papers, these words still exists somewhere.
My current focus in this area is to pursue writing for artistes – individuals or groups -, and others working within the music industry i.e. producers/record companies. Check out my Music page for samples from my Show Reel and more information.
Session Singer – During my time as a member of a successful UK based Gospel choir IDMC, I gained extensive experience in this area. Ranging from weddings and event launches to studio and live work for individuals, groups and bands, such as Spiritualized at Abbey Road Studios and The Royal Albert Hall. Check out my Music page for samples from my Show Reel and more information.
Other things of note
I feel I can confidently say I am:
A visionary. I have become increasingly more aware of this over recent times as I have been in different situations and contexts, where this part of my character been given more opportunity to be used and develop.
An innovator. I see this as a distinct part of my makeup. My creativity comes alive when I am able to initiate, try things differently etc If you were to imagine a presidential campaign, I would be in the advance party.
A communicator. I know that the ability to use words both verbally and written is something that I have been graced with and feel I have been gifted to speak.
An encourager. This is something that I feel very confident about; it has seemed to be a part of my natural outflow as long as I can remember.
For those budding psychologists out there or those of us who like to study people, here’s an ‘academic’ slant from the Myers Briggs personality indicator. It has me as an INFP:
“Quiet observers, idealistic, loyal. Important that outer life congruent with inner values. Curious, quick to see possibilities, often serves as catalysts to implement ideas. Adaptable, flexible and accepting unless a value is threatened. Wants to understand people and ways of fulfilling human potential. Little concern for possessions or surroundings.”
