Music Management

Greetings, I am a Melbourne-based dance adjudicator with over 35 years of experience across adjudicating, teaching, choreography, and performance in dance and musical theatre. My teaching career spans all facets of dance and musical theatre and includes work with private studios, professional workshops, masterclasses, performance companies, and tertiary institutions, including full-time accredited training programs. As the former owner of a successful performing arts studio—transitioned to new ownership in 2023 while continuing its legacy—I am proud to have trained students who have gone on to perform in major national and international productions. Graduate credits include Chicago, Cats, Wicked, Grease, Aladdin, The Lion King, Fame, Billy Elliot, Burn the Floor, and We Will Rock You, as well as careers across cruise ships, Disney, Universal Studios, film, international fashion, music videos, commercial work, and professional dance companies. As a performer and choreographer, I have had the privilege of working with renowned artists such as Kylie Minogue and John Farnham. My industry experience spans major stage productions, theatre restaurants, cabaret, promotional and fashion events, film, television, cruise ships, pantomime, and live performance—including appearances at the Royal Command Performance for Queen Elizabeth, The Footy Show Grand Final, the Melbourne Military Ball, and the Australian Open Players’ Ball. For over 30 years, I have adjudicated extensively throughout Australia and internationally. I bring a wealth of industry knowledge, professionalism, and passion to every role, providing fair, constructive, and encouraging feedback while maintaining a positive, efficient, and punctual approach to competition programming. Having once again been offered national and international adjudicating appointments, I look forward to continuing to support and inspire the next generation of performers while contributing meaningfully to the competition community.
