Songwriting

I am passionate about introducing songwriting to students from a young age, to help them develop their musical skills through self expression. I have worked with kids of all ages on pop, rock, hip-hop, jazz and classical compositions. I've also co-written school musicals and songs connected to curriculum units, such as immigration, activism and even math!

"We Are Kids" is a song that my grade 4 students at Pine Street School composed during their unit about child activists. They were invited to perform it on the famous Hamilton Musical stage at the Richard Rogers Theatre in New York City and receive feedback from Hamilton cast members!

3 students from Canadian International School worked with me to compose a song about the school. They were so excited that they gave up many recess periods to write, record and film!
