“Music transcends all and I truly believe it is the farthest-reaching form of communication. Everyone has a musical voice, and it is my mission to help others find theirs”

A professional Opera Singer with some 25 years of experience on the stage, I now combine my love of performing, with my singing as therapy work as a Singing For Health Practitioner. I use my practice to help those with life-limiting conditions such as COPD and other complex lung conditions, Parkinson’s, Dementia, Mental Health and most recently those living with Long Covid.  Through breath, body and voice I strive to help people find their own voice! I work with Common Wheel Music, Glasgow and Luminate Scotland with my Singing for Dementia work and run several online and in-person singing for breathing groups of my own, plus one for St Andrews Voices. I love crochet, cats and cold water swimming, but not all at the same time!
