What does a typical day look like for you?

I work full-time at secondary school in the SEND department, so I spend most of my day working with the young neurodiverse children and support them in school. Two days a week I then teach vocal lessons at Finale Music school, and the rest of the time I spend on music admin, trying to promote whatever upcoming gig I am doing! It's like I am doing 2 full-time jobs and a part-time job all at once!

How did the course help you with your career and ambitions?

The music course helped me in so many ways. My vocal lessons stretched me to become a far better singer than I ever thought possible, and my performance skills have excelled. I learnt about Music Therapy and did my final year project on this, which helped me realise that this is exactly the profession for me. I hope to study my Masters in Music Therapy next year.

What career opportunities have you had following your course? What opportunities did you get involved with while at 91Ö±²¥?

Since I have left University, I have had so many great opportunities! I have released an EP, sold out many gigs around the city, and most importantly, become a Help Musicians supported artist. Help Musicians are supporting my UK Tour in February 2024, which is promoting my EP and covers rnb/pop/neo-soul styles of music.

Why did you study music at the University of 91Ö±²¥?

When I came to 91Ö±²¥ for the Open Day, I somehow just knew that it was the right University for me. I like that there wasn't much pressure on being an incredible Classical musician, and that different skills from performance to music technology were celebrated and welcomed. I am so glad I came to 91Ö±²¥!
