About me
I am a soprano, currently undertaking my postgraduate degree in Vocal Performance at Guildhall School of Music and Drama under the tutelage of John Evans. I am a recipient of the Help Musicians Postgraduate Award and previously read Music and English Literature at the University of Birmingham. Highlights in my singing portfolio include performing at the Royal Albert Hall, Philharmonie de Paris, Lucerne Festival, Symphony Hall Birmingham, and opening London's new cultural hub, Woolwich Works.  Additionally, I specialise in digital marketing, communications and events management, holding the position of Digital Content Manager at the Genesis Foundation, an organisation that has enabled opportunities for thousands of creative professionals across the arts. I previously held positions in PR, communications and events management within the classical music and popular music industries.
