About Me
Playing the piano has been a lifelong journey for me, starting as a child and blossoming over many years of dedication and growth. Along the way, I achieved my Licentiate in Music (LMusA), as well as a Bachelor of Music with Honours from the Sir Zelman Cowen School of Music and a Master of Teaching (Music) from the Melbourne Graduate School of Education.
Winning awards like the Joan Earle Classical Prize (Monash) and the USCI International Gold Award (Malaysia) only deepened my passion and determination. Performing with ensembles such as the Monash Academy Orchestra and the Australian International Opera Company strengthened my confidence on stage and broadened my love for music.
With nearly twelve years of teaching experience, I've been privileged to connect with amazing students and supportive parents, each bringing their own insights and energy to my practice. I’ve also enjoyed contributing to the music community as treasurer for both the Victorian Music Teachers Association and the 2024 Australasian Piano Pedagogy Conference. It’s a joy to be part of such a dynamic field, and I look forward to continuing this journey with each new student and family.
Flow
Music and movement are profound phenomena that captivate and inspire me endlessly. The deeper the musical experience, the less words seem to suffice—listening to great music is amazing and performing it feels incredible. Music beautifully embodies the Hermetic principles in sound, weaving together universal truths in each note and phrase. The journey of learning music offers holistic personal growth, challenging and elevating us as we explore and express these deeper dimensions of life and sound.
Progress over Perfection
At my studio, learning to play the piano is an evergreen journey centred on personalised, in-person coaching sessions. Each student’s progress is nurtured and guided with a levelled rubric, providing a clear path for improvement. In my lessons, we focus on exploring movement and expanding repertoire, making every session a meaningful step forward. But the growth doesn’t stop there. Beyond individual lessons, students can dive into theory, improvisation, performance, and aural skills through the engaging Music Club, held on Saturday mornings. Concert and fitness excursions add an extra layer of excitement, giving students unique musical experiences and a chance to build independence.
I look forward to welcoming you to my authentic teaching style and life.
