“Tha mi air a’ bhith a’ teagasg Òrain Ghàidhlig ann an sgoiltean Leòdhais agus na Hearadh bho 1996. Cho math ri bhith a’ teagasg ann an suidheachadh clas, tha mi air a bhith a’ toirt taic do sheinneadairean agus còisirean ann a bhith ag ullachadh airson Mhòdan Nàiseanta agus bho chionn ghoirid tha mi air a bhith an sàs sa phròiseact ‘Dìleab’.
Tha 45 bliadhna de dh’eòlas agam ann a bhith a’ cluich ciùil ann an còmhlain agus nam aonar agus tha mi air a bhith a’ cluich agus a’ seinn iomadh gnè ciùil, nam measg ceòl traidiseanta, roc, dùthchasach agus ceòl dannsa Albannach.
Tha mi air a bhith a’ teagasg giotàir agus meur-chlàr tro Iomairt Ceòl Eilean Siar bhon a thòisich cùisean ann an 2003.”
