Director's Notes

I have been surrounded by music for my whole life.  My parents are big music lovers and exposed me to various different styles of music as a child.  I started studying piano from an early age and when I was eleven, I began playing the drums.  Throughout high school I learned as much as I could, teaching myself to play guitar, playing in bands and performing around the city as often as possible.  After graduating high school, I headed to London to study business at the University of Western.  Music was my true calling and while studying at UWO, I still played, studied and performed as much as possible.  It was during my time in London that I formed an original band called After Funk and we began recording and releasing our own music and touring regionally in support of it.  Drawing on my business background, I took it upon myself to manage the band, overseeing our team, coordinating releases, booking and marketing tours and more.  Following my time in London, I was fortunate to have the opportunity to study music in Humber College's prestigious Bachelor of Music program.  Since graduating from Humber, I have worked in the music industry as an educator, internationally touring musician and recording industry professional. For me, the learning never stops and I will be a lifelong student of music.  Most recently, I have began studying tabla, an Indian percussion instrument and am loving my journey.  Nothing makes me happier than sharing my passion for music with others and seeing them get as excited about learning as I do.
