So When Anita's captivating songwriting combines with New York based Grammy star, Ron "Blondie Boy" Thaler, it is Destiny. Anita joined forces with Ron in New York to record her latest album - Destiny. Anita caught Ron's eye while doing a tour in New Zealand. He was amazed by her voice and offered to produce her single "La La La."
Over the years Anita has developed her sound, songwriting and has now truly come into her own. She takes her creative inspiration from all walks of her life, which translates into great authenticity and powerful execution, both live and recorded. Her engagement with her fans leaves one feeling like there is no-one else in the arena. Her humble, self-reliant attitude is manifest in her passion, assertiveness, individuality and zest for life.
Trained in music theory, singing and performance at The Trinity College of London, Anita is an accomplished business woman with her own successful singing school, based in Wellington, NZ. Anita has refined the vocal chords of many a New Zealander and Idol finalist, along with working with Australian chart toppers, Evermore, whose 'Real Life" album went double platinum in Australia. Anita also assisted in the establishment of New Zealand's "Team Xtreme" foundation, an organisation which inspires and empowers young people through the arts and extreme sports.
