I made a decision to live my life to the fullest and that every day will be a wonderful day, I will have many memories, many experiences, be healthy to the best of my ability physically and mentally, meet many people, and help/serve people through learning the English langauge and music.
To give a bit of a backstory on myself, before moving to Japan. I lived in Toronto, Canada for about 10 years. Before this time, I lived in Ottawa, Canada and Nova Scotia, Canada where I also had music studios. In Toronto, Canada I had a thriving music studio where I tought voice and piano lessons both in my home and at a private music school `Merriam Music.`Over those 10 years I met and worked with about 150 families from many parts of the world who had come to live, work or learn in Canada and used English as a second language.
During my time in Toronto, I made many connections with people and in the music industry, I was doing live concerts, recording, writing and producing songs for both children and adults.
But, life changes unexpectedly sometimes and when this happens you have to make a lot of changes, and my big change lead me to Japan, to my new job teaching English at a langauge school (and now online with Cafetalk) and unexpected life change lead me to my husband.
Although, everything is going well for me in Japan, when I decided to move to Japan 2 years ago, I also decided to become semi-retired from music industry as well, which was difficult as music had always been a huge part of my life. I did my last live concert performance in Canada in June 2017 and my band Enst N`West disbanded and I packed my bags and moved to Japan in August 2017.
I had been working on recording a new album at the time to release so I eventually released the album entitled Beyond the Boundary in April 2018.
Since moving to Japan I have expereinced local life , traditional music, nature, hiking, camping and just living life to its fullest everyday.-- Everyday is gonna be a great day leading to the ULTRALIFE.
I started doing music again by starting a community English though music class at my local community centre here in Japan and now I’m offering Vocal lessons , songwriting in English and Study English song lyrics classes to help improve your English skills, vocabulary, and understanding here at Cafetalk!
