I would love to share my passion for music and learning with you and your child!!

I have completed my Elementary Piano Pedagogy with the Royal Conservatory of Music and was the Gold Medal recipient for Saskatchewan in 2013 (awarded to the highest mark in the province), a Certified Elementary and Intermediate Specialist, and Candidate for RCM Certified Online Piano Teacher.

I am honoured to have been chosen by Creative Kids to be the first teacher in SW Saskatchewan to be featured in their

2019 Annual Report.


My Qualifications and Community Involvement:

  • I am the Royal Conservatory of Music Representative for the Swift Current and SW area – if you have any questions about the exam process and its benefits, please ask!
  • Member of the Saskatchewan Registered Music Teachers Association, and I have been awarded the Certificate of Professional Achievement (2018-2022) from the Canadian Federation of Music Teachers Association. As an RMT, I am able to provide my students with access to a wide variety of programs, competitions, and scholarships.
  • Member of the provincial board for the Saskatchewan Orchestral Association where I work with wonderful pedagogues and musicians across the province, working to bring orchestral music to youth in the province.
  • I have taken courses through the Canadian Diversity Initiative in Unconscious Bias in the Workplace, Indigenous Culture Training, and LGBTQ+ Diversity & Inclusion. My studio is a safe and welcoming space for all students.
  • I am on The Swift Current Band Parents' Auxiliary and previously spent many years on the Executive for Swift Current & District Music Festival, and as PR Officer for the Registered Music Teachers of Swift Current. I feel it is important, as a music professional, to volunteer and contribute to the larger music community. This allows me to connect with other professionals in our community and to help guide our young musicians in whatever their musical path may be.
  • I have a Bachelor of Commerce (Hons.) from Queen's University. In addition, I have taken post-secondary courses in Environmental Law and Child Psychology.

I believe it is vital for teachers to engage in professional development. Always ask your teacher what their qualifications are!! You want your child with someone who is fully engaged in the learning process! That is our business!
