Musical Journey
I come from a strong music background, having learnt the violin, piano and guitar. Growing up, I was involved in chamber music groups, orchestras, musicals and in the Rockquest.
Education
In 2004, I completed my Bachelor Music in Classical Guitar Performance at Massey University (now NZSM) in Wellington under guidance of Matthew Marshall and Gunter Herbig. I also had masterclasses with guitarists such as Anthony Field, David Lisner, John Couch, Dr. Jane Curry, Lily Afshar, Jason Vieaux and Cheryl Grice-Watterson.
During my studies, I also toured the North Island with the Massey University Guitar Orchestra ‘Live Wires’. In 2004, I won the 1st Prize at the Christchurch Guitar Society Competition. I am an active member of the Chch Guitar Society and I am a member of the guitar quartet Guitar Otautahi.
Audio Engineering
In 2005, I began to pursue my passion for music in direction of recording, audio and sound technologies and completing a Certificate in Audio Engineering & Music Production at MAINZ (Tai Poutini Polytechnic). I complimented this by completing a Diploma in Audio Engineering & Music Production with Distinction in 2012.
I have worked as a freelance Audio Engineer, secondary school teacher and guitar teacher in Christchurch. As an Audio Engineer I have worked for Tandem Studios and as Tech co-ordinator for community access radio station Plains FM in Christchurch. I’ve been the Audio Engineer and Tech co-ordinator for the Taranaki Classical Guitar Summer School since 2012 and recorded the Christchurch concert of the NZGQ in September 2012.
Services
I can teach note reading, technical aspects for playing Classical Guitar, analysing music, performance practice, ensemble playing and theory.
I can also prepare students for NCEA assessments or for auditioning for music performance programmes at Universities. I have experience in preparing students for Trinity Guildhall Exams with a 100% pass rate.
