About

​

I'm a singer, director, and voice specialist, and I love working at the meeting point of performance, neuroscience, and embodied practice. This work grew out of my own life as a performer, and has been shaped over many years of teaching, coaching, and asking questions about how voice, perception, and wellbeing connect.

As a singer and director, I move between opera, musical theatre, and contemporary performance. What draws me in, again and again, is the relationship between voice, text, dramaturgy, and presence — how a body in performance actually works. Everything I teach and coach comes from that lived experience of being in rehearsal rooms and on stages, not just from theory.

​

I studied Opera at the Conservatorio di Mantova Lucio Campiani, Musical Theatre at the Royal Academy of Music, and Music & Neuroscience at Goldsmiths, University of London, and I've continued training in opera direction and vocal pedagogy in Italy and the UK, including the Melofonetica Method for teaching Italian to singers. These days I teach at UK institutions and coach singers, actors, and voice users around the world — I'm always glad to meet new people through this work.

​

In 2023, I was Artist in Residence at Brunel University, which gave me space to dig deeper into my practice-based research around multisensory artistic work. One of the highlights of that residency was curating an international exhibition on synaesthesia at the OXO Tower — bringing together over 40 artists from around the world, across many different art forms, to explore artistic research and multisensory experience with the public.

 

Over the years, this has all come together into a personalised, research-informed approach to voice, singing, and acting — one that draws on neuroscience and embodied practice to help performers and voice users find technical clarity, expressive freedom, and a sustainable, healthy relationship with their voice.

 

At the heart of it all is a simple belief: the voice isn't just a technical instrument. It's a place where perception, identity, and embodied knowledge meet — and that belief is what continues to shape me as a singer, director, performer, and researcher.
