As a working and passionate musician, I am currently committed to my role at VCA (Victorian College of the Arts) where I work with second-year Musical Theatre students. Every Tuesday morning, I have the opportunity to share my expertise, guide students in their artistic journeys, and help them hone their craft.

Through my work as a musician, I have found a fulfilling avenue for creative expression and an opportunity to contribute to society in meaningful ways. Teaching at VCA has been particularly rewarding, as I am able to share my passion for music and empower the next generation of musical theatre professionals.

Overall, I am grateful for the opportunities that music has provided me, and I look forward to continuing to share my talents and inspire others through my work as a musician and educator.
