Trumpeter, Teacher

Music

MEd Music Education (Online) - 2015
Performance Diploma - Trumpet - 1996

My teaching role gives me a great deal of job satisfaction, I firmly believe the reason for this are the many opportunities for self-improvement. The Trinity Laban Teaching Musician course provided a comprehensive study of my own practice and expanded horizons I was previously unaware of.
