Ria has surrounded herself with western classical music ever since she was a child. She started playing the piano at the young age of 3. She has also learnt the violin, guitar, drums and cello. Ria has completed her Bachelors in Psychology. She is a AMI trained Montessori Directress and is the youngest teacher at Harmony Montessori. She is an integral part of the prestigious Paranjoti Academy Chorus. Having been a student of MMMF for 10 years herself, she deeply understands the value of music in every walk of life. What she loves most about the DM programme is the joy of working with young children and watching them grow musically with age. Her love for music further extends to working with Songbound, a NGO which provides early music education to underprivileged children. Ria hopes to continue working with children in the different academic and recreational settings. She is an avid animal lover. Her hobbies include skating, trekking and attending live gigs.
