After graduating with a Masters in French Language and Literature at the University Paris 7 Denis Diderot, I furthered my studies as a classical soprano and graduated from the Royal Conservatoire of Scotland.
Through the RCS, I’ve benefited from the rich mentoring of Prof. Chris Underwood, keeping a vital and direct link to the poets and composers of the late French 19th Century.
Through my musical training I’ve been fortunate to work with specialists of the French Mélodie Repertoire (Helen Abbott, Roy Howat in the UK).
As a singer, I participated in masterclasses with Véronique Gens, Michel Piquemal, François Leroux and Michelle Command.
I’ve been teaching the French Language class for singers and the French Repertoire classes for the Vocal Department at the Royal Conservatoire of Scotland since 2018.
Since 2021, I also give French Repertoire and Phonetic workshops to the Vocal students Royal Northern Conservatoire of Music, Manchester.
As French Coach for the Gibson Opera School at the RCS, I’ve worked on the recent productions of “Les Mamelles de Tirésias” , “Le Dialogue des Carmélites” and the acclaimed production of “L’étoile”, by Chabrier, and for Grange Park Opera’s Werther for the 2023 season.
