Take Private Theatrical Broadway Singing Lessons

About Me

I have been active in the entertainment industry since the age of 12, when I gave my first professional performance. Prior to that I was already being introduced to music with years of guitar, and then vocal instruction. I do not remember a time of my life when I was not singing somewhere; in the house, in the yard, in the classroom. That is perhaps why I identify so well with the young people who gather so much enjoyment from "just singing" at every opportunity. I studied professionally for over 10 years with renown soprano and voice teacher Sylvia Jensen, who was instrumental in the enhancement of my vocal knowledge and technique. She is now the Director of Education for the Miss Ohio pageants of the Miss America competitions, elevating many young ladies to the national spotlight. At age 14, I auditioned for, and was added to cast of a network television variety program, "The Gene Carroll Show", that was a television institution for over 30 years in the midwest. I was a featured...

About Me

I know what makes a good musician and a good performer and I'm pleased

Now introducing the Epic Music Mastery Game! A full fledged competition between yourself and other students where you can earn experience points, level up, win prizes, learn and advance your skills in the process!

Dear aspiring singers: I firmly believe that with the right training, anyone can sing! We all have the instrument built-in after all! Are you tone deaf? I can fix that. Crack on high notes? I can fix that. Nasal? Hoarse? Can't hold long notes? All of these are common vocal problems that can be easily be solved through guidance and practice. Trust me, no one ever regretted taking voice lessons!

For my piano friends: How often do you sit down at a piano and wish you could just place your hands on the piano and magically create beautiful music? Piano is a challenging skill, but certainly not impossible. Learning to play the piano, even if it's never mastered, is such an incredible joy. Learning piano helps you to improve so many other skills as well,...

About Me

Ever since I was a child, music has always been a passion of mine. Since singing in a local church choir as a toddler, I have evolved into a degree-seeking vocalist trained by a Metropolitan Opera star, picking up other instruments and specialties along the way, such as guitar, piano, and bass.

My professional teaching experience began in 2009, when I began teaching music classes to elementary school children through Hueston Music. Although I loved teaching children guitar, piano, and voice, I was forced to move to the Jacksonville area to attend the University of North Florida, and have decided to take on more private music students while pursuing my degree in Music Education.

My main influences include Hansi Kursch (vocalist, Blind Guardian), Bruce Dickinson (vocalist, Iron Maiden), Elton John (vocalist / pianist), Frederic Chopin (pianist), Eric Clapton (guitarist), David Gilmour (guitarist, Pink Floyd), Z. Randall Stroope (composer), and Wolfgang Amadeus Mozart...

About Me

I often wondered how singers sang. So I took the journey, and learned. I attended California Polytechnic University, Pomona and got started on the road to learning how to sing. I continued the journey at Arizona State University in their Masters of Music graduate program. At that point I had some skills and landed a job with Sesame Street Live as the Character of Professor Art, travelling the country singing and dancing with the Muppets. Then I landed in Las Vegas where I performed for people from around the world as a Gondolier. I have also had the pleasure of performing in foreign languages in the Operas "La Boheme" and "La Traviata". Learning to sing is not an over-night thing. It takes time. But if you want to start the process, let me share my experience and knowledge with you. Thanks.
