About

My goal is to inspire a deep love of music in my students through joyful & creative music learning experiences, so that they are inspired to engage with music for the rest of their lives.

I currently offer piano lessons at my studio in Weston Creek and at St. Edmund's College in Griffith, ACT. Personalised one-on-one music teacher training sessions are also available. Please contact me for further information.
