I am a professional French Horn player with the Canberra Symphony Orchestra. I have done extensive research into Performance Psychology and have trained with global field leaders:

Rob Knopper, principal timpanist of the MET Orchestra and founder of Audition Hacker https://www.robknopper.com/

Mark Bain of Tasmanian Symphony Orchestra, founder of Performance Under Pressure https://www.performanceup.com.au/

Noa Kagayama, performance psychologist and founder of Bulletproof Musician https://bulletproofmusician.com/

Christopher Still, trumpet player with the LA Philharmonic and founder of Honesty Pill https://honestypill.com/about/

Andrew Bain, Principal Horn of the LA Philharmonic and co-founder of Invested Musician https://www.investedmusician.com/

My focus is on changing how you think about and feel about practice so you can have lifelong enjoyment of your instrument!

You don't need motivation, or discipline, talent or even lot of hours slogging it out to see improvement in your playing every day! You just need ten minutes, a plan and focus on your joy!

I specialize in beginner and intermediate players and my focus is on setting your mindset and habits up so you can play and practice your instrument with pleasure for life.

My goal is to help people in Canberra and regional Australia have access to high level brass education and frees them feel confident when they practice at home.
