Rights Management for actors, artists, producers and song writers
I’ve been with SRLV for just over 11 years and am a consultant for all areas of the creative arts
industries, as well as Rights Management for actors, artists, producers and song writers.
Having such a variety of clients means I have in-depth knowledge to provide all round advice. My
clients have wide-ranging issues involving everything in the world of media
As a lifelong music fan and manager of a music company, I understand the intricacies of the business
and am always thinking a step ahead. Knowing the music industry inside out means that I bring a
wealth of valuable experience to my clients and can give advice on all aspects of business
management when it comes to handling their music, including the complexities of recording and
publishing rights and their touring activities. Valuation of key IP rights is now becoming one of the
important issues in daily life.
In my spare time, I watch both grass roots and professional football and I love rummaging around
charity and record shops, collecting rare and interesting records. I also manage a music company.
Part of what I value so much is that my role brings together so many of my interests and passions –
my hobbies inform my job, and vice versa.
As one of my clients says, ‘We rock until we drop’
