Hello and Welcome
I am a down-to-earth, classically trained pianist living in London. As a collaborative pianist working with singers and instrumentalists, my professional work encompasses recitals, private events, recording sessions, interactive therapeutic sessions, and meditative sound concerts.
I thoroughly enjoy therapeutic sound work - I have completed a Professional Diploma in Group Sound Arts Therapy at the British Academy of Sound Therapy, and Integral Sound Studies and Practices with SVARAM Center in Auroville, India. I have also completed Reiki Level 1 and Level 2 Practitioner training to support my work. I would be delighted to bring the magical world of music and healing sounds to you.
