After graduating from Concordia University with a Bachelor of Fine Arts in 2003, I began teaching piano in Ottawa while continuing my piano and theory studies with Paulette Price and Sandra Cooke. I received my ARCT (Piano Teacher) with First-Class Honours from the Royal Conservatory of Music. For many years I served on the council of the Ottawa Region Branch of the Ontario Registered Music Teachers Association. I established my Montréal studio in 2011. I have also taught drama and musical theatre to children and teens for the past 15 years, co-authoring four original musicals and many children’s plays.
