About Reuben

Through a career that has had many twists and turns, including 25 years as a qualified chef, Reuben found his passion for nurturing and helping people.

It began when he realised how much he enjoyed training other chefs and gradually helped him uncover his passion for mentoring.

He shifted his focus to music and to teaching others the joy of having a go, no matter the skill level.

He began playing at festivals, clubs, and pubs, and soon found his way into the recording studio.

Reuben understands that life does not always deal out a fair hand and that everyone should have the right to participate in social environments.

"Giving a helping hand to make all people feel worthwhile makes me happy."

Reuben has found that working with marginalised people of any origin is an incredible way he can make a difference in people’s lives, and aims to inspire people to appreciate and participate in making music.

He prides himself in his diverse portfolio of clients, including:

• National Disability Insurance Scheme (NDIS) clients

• Indigenous and Torres Strait Islander clients

He is also involved in a number of social capacities, including:

• Residential youth work

• Boarding school mentorships

• Youth centre and social welfare visits

What sets him apart?

Calmness, acceptance, and a great sense of humour have given rise to many opportunities with many great clients.
