During the four uears of the degree I was the holder of the following scholarships: The Conservatorium Scholarship (2004), the Amelia Joscelyn Memorial Scholarship for two years (2005/06), and the Melba's highest award, the Dame Nellie Melba Award (2007), as well as the innagural Youth Music Foundation Scholarship (2007). My experience in Opera begun as part of the chorus with Melbourne Opera company's productions of 'The pearl fishers' and 'La Traviata' (2003). I have performed at the St. Ignacius 100th Anniversary, at 'Live at the Convent' for live performances on two occasions (2007), and in various other corporate and ceremonial settings. I also have extensive experience in composing my own music, with the track 'A beautiful mistake' being purchased by grundy Records to be used for the T.V series Neighbours. Between 2001 and 2003 I was the lead singer and writter in the project eden wich ammounted to eight fully produced tracks. I also taught singing for two years privately at my home studio.
