My journey into my music

My family has always been musical. I was in the church choir at a young age. I began learning piano, voice, and baritone bugle at 12. I joined a marching band and learned quickly, and enjoyed the competitive bug at competitions nationwide. 

The marching band and piano playing for Scout and Guide Gang-shows, as well as running campfires provided me with a great deal of experience. I was not only able to gain confidence through all of this, but I was also able to acquire valuable skills that I still use today. It was a joy for me to perform, write, and arrange music, and it still is a huge passion of mine.

Throughout my music journey, I made many accomplishments and when I became a confident pianist, I started accompanying children and adults in church choirs. My experience includes teaching contemporary choirs, playing for stage shows, as well as playing the organ for many major church services. My piano skills have landed me a lot of jobs teaching contemporary choirs. In addition to playing lounge piano for weddings, I teach piano and voice to students of all ages at a secondary school and privately. 

Girl Guiding, camping, hiking, swimming, and just enjoying the outdoors are some of my favourite things to do and being with my family. My passion is music instruction, and I always strive to make everyone better.
