PhD student and research assistant, Music Theory, McGill University
I am a doctoral candidate at McGill University, where I am also a research assistant and teaching assistant. My background is in musical performance (classical singing), and I conduct research on twentieth musical modernism (focussing on twelve-tone music and neoclassicism) in the disciplines of music theory and music history. I study underrepresented composers, such as women modernist pioneers Margaret Sutherland and Elisabeth Lutyens. For my research, I employ a range of music theories from both tonal and post-tonal theories. One of my main goals as a scholar is to engage with the general public to educate and disseminate research, facilitating increased musical and cultural literacy in society.
