I am a teacher, musician and an author. In my fifteen years teaching children as both a Montessori Teacher and an Elementary Music Teacher, I have had the opportunity to apply my knowledge of music to constant practice. Whether it is writing stories and plays, teaching music, training voices or conducting workshops on the Importance of Music in Early Childhood, fostering a love of music in young children has been my life-long passion. My focus is to teach children with content that would nurture their mind, soul and spirit.

I was born and raised in Batticaloa, Sri Lanka - a coastal town of natural beauty. My father encouraged me to dream big. My mother taught me to keep my feet firmly planted on the ground. My brothers showered me with constant love and support which made me strong. My school days at St. Cecelia’s Convent helped me become confident. I obtained my BA in English Literature in India where I discovered my love for writing stories and plays.

Eventually I moved to Canada with my husband who encouraged me to reach my goals. My two daughters are my inspiration to write and create work for children. I graduated with a Diploma in Montessori Education. I taught in a primary class for 3 to 6 year olds and Elementary Music Programme at White Oaks Montessori School in Mississauga for many years. husband and two daughters. My goal is to spend time with my family and work around my passion.
