Elise has always been interested in music and has studied voice, flute, piano, bass guitar and auxiliary percussion throughout her school career. She taught at the Academy of Contemporary Music in North Perth for three years before opening her own home studio.
Elise completed her Certificate III and IV in Music (voice and piano) in 2006 & 2007 and the Australian Music Examination Board‘s series of classical singing exams in 2014.
Elise is no stranger to theatre in Perth, having performed in many musical productions over the years. She is proud that many of her students are following in her footsteps by successfully auditioning for and performing in both community and professional musical productions, as well as being accepted into tertiary courses at WAAPA and The Actor’s Hub, and school-based specialist music courses such as SVAPA.
