Bio

I grew up in the beautiful Waitakere Ranges in Auckland, New Zealand . My interests focussed from an early age on reading, art, writing and music and these culminated in a succession of Music Degrees from Auckland University and the Musikhochschule in Freiburg,Germany.

My language skills were honed by living in a German youth hostel from the beginning and teaching flute in the Black Forest area and the Kaiserstuhl, whilst (mostly)retaining my sense of humor. I am used to working to a deadline,  performing under pressure, and striving towards excellence.

After 30 years of constant traveling and performing I am grateful now for my wonderful flute students and for the opportunity to work linguistically, helping others present the best possible version of their work. 

 Ich bin in den wunderschönen Waitakere Ranges in Auckland, Neuseeland aufgewachsen. Meine Interessen konzentrierten sich von klein auf auf Lesen, Kunst, Schreiben und Musik, was zu einer Reihe von Musikabschlüssen an der Auckland University und der Musikhochschule in Freiburg führte.

Meine Sprachkenntnisse wurden durch das Leben in einem deutschen Wohnheim von Anfang an verfeinert und durch den Flötenunterricht im Schwarzwald und am Kaiserstuhl, bei gleichzeitigem (meist) Erhalt meines Sinnes für Humor. Ich bin es gewohnt, fristgerecht und unter Zeitdruck zu arbeiten und nach Spitzenleistungen zu streben.

Nach 30 Jahren ständiger Reisen und Auftritte bin ich jetzt dankbar für meine wunderbaren Flötenstudenten und für die Möglichkeit, sprachlich zu arbeiten und anderen zu helfen, die bestmögliche Version ihrer Arbeit zu präsentieren.
