My enthusiasm for empowering others through creative practices has stemmed from my own experience of building my own self-confidence through learning music technology. It was through playing on synthesizers and working as a part of a team in different music studios that I found new ways of self-expression that have strengthened my sense of self. I feel privileged to have had these opportunities, and so I dedicated my master’s research to finding ways of demystifying synthesis in educational contexts, specifically to give children positive first encounters with music technology that inspires curiosity and builds upon their musical identities. My personal experience has made me really care for the pedagogical discourse behind bringing music technology to people, and to listen to feedback to create enriching and positive learning experiences.
