Engineer and Counsellor
About me
My formal training was in Electrical Engineering, graduating in 2001. Instead of pursuing that further, I married and had children, passing on to them my love of music and technical details.
The Engineering degree introduced me to an arcane typesetting system called TeX, which turned out to be useful for typing up Gregorian chant. Soon I ended up typing music for different groups and thereby learning much about Gregorian chant.
Since then I have worked to spread Gregorian chant amongst friends and family. With all the personal preferences that go into musical taste, I find Gregorian chant seems to transcend boundaries and help bring people together. The time I put into writing, teaching face to face, managing choirs, assembling books and videos will hopefully make the world a better place through music.
There is still a long way to go to bring the riches of Gregorian chant to all those who could benefit from its uplifting beauty.
I also enjoy knitting, sewing and singing and playing more ridiculous music.
