ABOUT ME
I graduated with Distinction and a DipRAM from the Opera Programme at London’s Royal Academy of Music. Before moving to London, I studied in Melbourne and then continued my language and vocal studies in Milan, Italy.
During my stage career, I performed a great number of operatic roles, including Germont Pere (La Traviata), Dr Falke (Die Fledermaus), Figaro (Il Barbiere di Siviglia), Papageno (Die Zauberflöte), Escamillo (Carmen), Enrico (Lucia di Lammermoor) and Marcello (La Boheme), working with companies such as Scottish Opera, Opera Australia, English Touring Opera, Opera Queensland, OzOpera, Melbourne Opera and Melbourne City Opera.
In 2009, I started my own production company in the UK, Opera Novella, which produced full operas, gala concerts and corporate shows across Europe. Since then, I have also directed a number of operas including Carmen, Rigoletto and La Boheme.
In 2014, I returned to Australia to join Melbourne's CitiOpera as General Manager and have produced a number of successful operas and concerts for them. I was elevated to the Board of CitiOpera in 2015.
I then took on the role of Executive Producer for TEG Life Like Touring, working on exciting and unique projects across Australia and around the world.
In 2020, I began working with the City of Boroondara to lead a number of special projects including the Boroondara Eisteddfod and the Summer in the Park series, more than doubling attendance and engagement in those programs.
I was then asked to lead and develop strategic collaboration across the Community Services Directorate of Boroondara City Council, working with diverse and passionate teams to leverage each other's skills and amplify the exceptional work they do.
I currently serve on the Board of the Royal South Street Society, providing stewardship and guidance for the Ballarat Eisteddfod and the world's longest running vocal competition, The Herald Sun Aria.
