'Most enjoyable also the Mezzo-Soprano/Alto of Rosel Labone in her role of Othniel. In her luscious voice, in part acquiring a very enjoyable dramatic edge, she demonstrated her fine art especially in her Air “Place danger around me”, where she surprisingly ended on a top “B” , therefore demonstrating a remarkable wide range of her beautiful voice. - She and Gina Sanders visibly enjoyed their artistic collaboration, which added another happy aspect to this afternoon’s concert.' NZ Opera News, 2023 (2023)

I have full working rights in the UK. I reached the final audition stage for a year-long contract with Houston Grand Opera, Arizona Opera, and San Francisco Opera Guild for their upcoming tours - awaiting results. Subsequent auditions follow with Opera San Jose, Tampa Opera and Boulder Opera. I am currently waiting to hear on the outcome of my third callback for A.D. Player's upcoming production of 'Esther'. I have recently been offered the cover of the lead role in Cold Sassy Tree with Mission Opera California, and the lead role of Mother in Amahl and the Night Visitors with Badlands Opera. I am also a member of the Orlando Opera mainstage chorus. This month I was invited to perform new works at the Austin Opera Festival USA.
This season I performed in Operativo Houston's season of 'Gypsy' in the lead role of Mama Rose.
While in New York later this season, I performed the role of Azucena for Taconic Opera's summer program.
Recent oratorio roles with orchestra include Othniel and Daniel with the Handel Consort and Quire.
I was also invited to perform the roles of Hansel in Hansel and Gretel and Second Lady in the Magic Flute with the Manhattan Opera Studio, and to understudy the Witch in Hansel and Gretel with Chicago Summer Opera, both on scholarships.
US experience includes being invited to understudy Svetlana in Chess with the American Coast Theater. I have also been invited to understudy the lead role of Hanna with Mission Opera in California. Previous experience includes the lead role in Last Year in Samsonville at the National Opera Center NYC.
