Hi Music has always been my biggest passion and from the age of five I began having keyboard and piano lessons before I found my love of singing including songs of all genres in particular Rock, Pop and Musical Theatre.
I was in school choir where I would love to sing solos, joined an amateur dramatic group as a member of chorus and my mom was a performer on the local club circuit and would follow her and started singing in music venues with live backing from the age of twelve.
My interest grew as a I got older and was lucky enough to perform at the Grand Theatre in productions and I was also the lead singer in duos performing covers and it was my time in a tribute band that led me to Emma to develop some formal training for my passion which resulted in me passing my Grade 6, 7 and 8 Exams in singing with merit and distinctions.
Now in my thirties my love for all things music still continues to grow and alongside my full time job still love to perform but would love to pass on my knowledge and love of performing onto others.
