My career has taken me from the top of the charts as an APRA award-winning songwriter for the multi-platinum band Rogue Traders, to performing in theatres and stages around the country. This journey led to high-level work with Universal Publishing and a dynamic session career, where my voice has been featured on everything from the ABC and the video game Mafia 3 to iconic Starburst advertising campaigns.
For over 20 years, I've channeled that extensive industry experience into my true passion: teaching from my studio. Having performed at the ARIAs and worked with artists such as INXS, I offer students more than just vocal coaching. I provide practical mentorship on performance, studio recording, and empowering them to build their own confident and successful experiences.
