A few years later she received the Frank Winter memorial award at the Auckland Folk

Alan Munde and Bill Evans. She won the Uncle Dave Macon banjo competition in Murfreesboro,
Tennessee at just 15 years old and came runner up in the Rockygrass bluegrass banjo

with tenor banjoist, Alex Borwick and most recently with Cy Winstanley and Vanessa

she recorded her debut album, Village Green, which features original compositions
and collaborations with some of the best acoustic musicians from all around NZ.
