Energetic, highly motivated, and people-focused, with a strong commitment to supporting others and ensuring their wellbeing. I bring a solid understanding of the live music sector, strong organisational skills, and an ability to learn quickly by ear. Calm and adaptable under pressure, I stay focused when things get busy. Detail-oriented and driven to getting things right the first time, I bring respectful, focused energy to all vocal roles. I’m passionate about collaborating with other musicians and audiences, and I thrive in high-energy festival and live-session settings. I’m comfortable taking the lead on vocal parts or supporting harmonies, and I always aim to deliver performances that feel warm, clear, and engaging for listeners.
