What I'm looking for

I'm looking to continue building inclusive music and cultural programmes where I can lead choirs and ensembles, develop curricula, coordinate performances and festivals, and support young people's growth through music, culture, and sport.

I've developed music curricula and cultural programmes across Reddford House The Hills, Maragon Olympus, Zonnebloem Girls Primary School, and Willowridge High School. I lead choirs and marimba ensembles, prepare learners for performances and festivals, and create opportunities for confident participation in school cultural life.

At Willowridge High School, I directed and prepared a choir for the Pretoria Eisteddfod, achieving a B grade. My work includes repertoire selection, rehearsal management, competition registrations, event logistics, and coordination with organisers and adjudicators.

I'm trained in choral conducting, music education, music technology, and the Kodály method, with experience in Pro Tools, audio mixing, mastering, live sound setups, and recordings. I also support youth development through boarding mentorship and touch rugby coaching.
