Voice (tenor)
Roots
Melbourne, Australia
Study
I studied a Bachelor in Music in Melbourne from 2011-2014 and then moved to Basel in 2016 to do a Bachelor and a Master in Voice with a minor in Historical Improvisation.
Professional
I perform as a freelance concert and opera singer with groups in Europe and Australia.
Why
My mother is a harpsichordist and my father is an organist and conductor. Music has always played a big role in my life and is something I love to do.
Elective Affinities
When I’m not singing, you can usually find me reading, writing, swimming, running, hiking, or drinking coffee in the sun.
