Nadia is a Canadian musician who first began violin lessons at the age of three and piano lessons at the age of six. She grew up performing classical music through the Royal Conservatory of Music method, and participated in many competitive festivals.

In addition to her classical violin training, she grew up performing fiddle music at various fiddle camps in Alberta, and was a part of a fiddle band called the Trixie Chicks. The Trixie Chicks traveled across Alberta for six years performing at various venues, festivals, and concerts, including a CD release concert for Brett Kissel. The Trixie Chicks were very popular at the Fringe Festival in Edmonton and got the opportunity to record their very own CD with a variety of fiddle and Celtic repertoire.

Nadia has been teaching music since 2009 from her own studio (Melodic Moments) located inside her home, as well as, at various music schools such as Millwoods Music School, Dominelli School of Music, and Long & McQuade South. She chose to further her musical aptitude by completing a Bachelor of Music degree at the King’s University in Edmonton and finished her degree with honors with distinction in 2014.

​
Music has been a huge part of her life and continues to be as she has the opportunity to share it with others, through teaching and performing. She really enjoys working with people of all ages, and has a gentle approach that brings great results.
Her favorite quote about music is by Victor Hugo and reads as follows: “Music expresses that which cannot be said and on which it is impossible to be silent.”
