“First picking up a baton during my undergraduate years, I began conducting by forming my own ensembles. Promoting underrepresented voices and improving accessibility to music are big driving forces in my artistic output. I have organised standalone concerts as well as festivals, aiming to bring together people from all walks of life. Although my experience is mainly orchestral, sharing the story of the music is intrinsic to a conductor's role. For this reason, the bridge to opera feels beautifully natural.

I grew up in Kent; my mother is from Scotland and my father was from Guyana. Although neither are musicians, I was immersed in a cultural fusion as I grew up. They instilled a deep love of music and the arts, and a strong belief in pursuing one's passion.”
