About

With over 20 years of experience teaching violin to all ages and levels, I help students achieve their musical goals in the style of their choice—Classical, Folk, Jazz, or simply playing for enjoyment.

I began teaching in my third year at university, helping a student successfully audition for the Bachelor of Music course at the University of Southern Queensland. After graduating, I moved to the UK and taught privately while performing at weddings, in bands, and with theatre companies.

I moved back to Melbourne in early 2020 and now play in a folk duo called Craic’n—we’re often at The Drunken Poet on Sundays if you’d like to come along.

I’m based in Coburg and can travel within a 30-minute radius by car. My rate is $60/hour.
