Musical Directing (Vocals):
Being an MD is one of my greatest achievements and being able to work with a team of creatives and seeing our vision come to life is beyond fulfilling. Being able to orchestrate and teach vocals for a production goes beyond the skillset of a performance coach as I am able to share musicianship skills with my pupils and teach them stagecraft in professional settings.
Being a Vocal Coach..
'Learning to sing can have endless benefits including enhancing performance, improving language skills, memory, social skills, whilst also boosting confidence and enhancing creativity. Yet for me, personally music has been a huge escapism throughout my whole life and with the belief of some of my own amazing tutors, it is a passion I have now turned into a long lasting career. And nothing brings me more joy than to continue to inspire and nurture the next generation and share my love of singing. I teach a range of ages from 4-16 year olds and am constantly inspired myself at the courage and dedication some of the young individuals show and I'm grateful to be apart of so many aspiring performers' journeys.'
