Strategic Repertoire Diversity Consultant
Music Director / Pianist
Earlier in my career I focused most of that entrepreneurial energy on learning to understand classical music more deeply. I performed across North America and China. I worked as an operatic and choral music director, a pianist, an organist, a vocal coach, an arranger, and composer.
This led me to create BIPOC Voices. Highlights of that project include creating the largest database of works for solo voice(s) and 2 or more instruments by BIPOC composers in the world, and the first-ever Canada-wide reports on how both orchestras and opera companies programmed equity-seeking composers. After a short stint working in DEI at the National Arts Centre, I am now returning to entrepreneurship to pursue projects that help orchestras across to amplify their social impact.
