Versatile educator and coach skilled in music direction, swimming coaching, and digital support services.
What I'm looking for
I am a dedicated educator and performing musician with experience directing choirs, composing music, and teaching instruments and voice. I bring hands-on leadership from coordinating rehearsals and performances to arranging music for diverse ensembles.
I pair creative musical work with practical support skills — data entry, proofreading, virtual assistance, transcription, and social media management — delivering accurate, timely results for clients and organizations.
I have coached swimmers, served as a lifeguard, and managed safety and instruction in aquatic settings while promoting engagement through social media and community events; I am open to freelance, coaching, or full-time roles.
