My early life was surrounded by music. I was inspired to learn to play the violin by my father and started lessons when I was 5.
After finishing school, I studied for a BMus at Canterbury Christ Church University and then gained a Masters Degree from Trinity Laban Conservatoire of Music and Dance.
I'm now a community music specialist and work with a wide variety of people from babies to adults, in a diverse array of settings. I enjoy running workshops, orchestras, choirs and first access classes, and has a real passion for making music inclusive for all.
I am very happy to be your Regional Manager for the East Herts & Broxbourne area. I want to enable all pupils to enjoy music making and develop their musical voice.
Every child should be given the opportunity to discover their musical voice and want to continue with music making after they leave school. By working together, as a musical family we can achieve this.I look forward to meeting with all schools and please don’t hesitate to contact me; I’ll be your first point of contact for all things musical.
I am delighted to be supporting schools in West Herts as the Regional Manager. There is a fantastic team of HMS teachers in West Herts and in partnership with our Community Development Leads, my colleague Kris Banks and I look forward to creating many new opportunities for schools to work with us.
We are also planning to bring schools together to celebrate music in West Herts, and share our work within the wider Hertfordshire community.
