About

I finished my entire primary school career at Laerskool GNS and graduated in 2010. In 2010 I was asked to sing at the merit evening, which turned turn out to be the first of many performances. After graduating, I was introduced to the internationally acclaimed children’s choir, Magaliesberg Children’s Choir. With the choir I have travelled to Germany in 2013 and 2014, taking part in the Johannes Brahms International Choir Festival. The choir won two gold certificates at this festival. Each gold certificate automatically qualified it to compete in the World Choir Games, valid for five years from the date of issue. I participated with the choir when it entered the Games in Riga, Latvia in 2014, where it won two silver certificates and one bronze certificate.

I started classical vocal and music theory training at Die Hoërskool Wonderboom from 2012 - 2015. During this time I obtained my grade 5 in Music Theory and my grade 7 in Classical Singing through UNISA and Trinity College London, respectively.

After I matriculated from Die Hoërskool Langenhoven I studied Music Technology at Emendy Multimedia Institute where my love for music was enhanced and further cultivated. I completed my studies at Emendy in 2018 and graduated with a Diploma in Music Technology in the top three of my class. I have started taking vocal lessons again, and continue to do so, in 2018 and since obtained my Grade 8 at Trinity College London and getting guitar lessons, improving on my vocal and guitar abilities.

I am now a professional singer, recording artist and songwriter, working on my own brand and focusing on becoming a household name. I am also currently studying song writing at Berklee College of Music in Boston, USA. I do my courses online. I am doing individual courses at this point but have been accepted for degree purposes.
