Hi, I'm a versatile freelance singer based in London. I'm a classically trained, (Royal Academy of Music,) jazzically inspired, experienced pro. As well as classical/opera work I sing in Cafe Songs duo "Tiramisu" with accordionist Serge Pachnine or "Vintage" with jazz pianist Christian Vaughan. Experience includes session work, stage, cabaret, concert, wedding, and corporate functions. I also love my teaching work! Strangest gig I've done: sing to a field of cows on national news. No,really...
