His undergraduate studies were completed on a full scholarship at the University of Toronto with Lydia Wong,and honoured with the Gabriella Dory Prize in Music upon graduation. Further education was sponsored by the David and Marcia Beach Summer Studies award which has enabled him to work with such eminent artists and pedagogues as Klaus Hellwig, John Perry, Jerome Lowenthal, Ronan O’Hora, Stefan Vladar, Avedis Kouyoumdjian, Ian Hobson and more. Dane is continuing his studies in Toronto pursuing a Master of Music in Performance and Pedagogy in the studio of Marietta Orlov as a recipient of the University of Toronto Fellowship, Arthur Plettner Graduate Fellowship, and Yoshiteru Koga and Sumko Hara Piano Pedagogy Scholarship.
