I’m founder and co-director of 'Musicmatters', a music school in Sri Lanka. I had my secondary education at SJC, Colombo, and graduated from NYU with a BMus and MA in Piano Performance and Composition. I conduct 'The Symphony Orchestra of Sri Lanka', and the vocal ensembles 'The Old Joes Choir' and 'Contempo', and play in the cross-genre ensembles 'Baliphonics' and 'Thriloka'. I have collaborated with artists such as Celina Charlier, Ashan Pillai, Joshua Roman, and Danielle de Niese.
