I am a seven year veteran private teacher. I have taught lessons in Voice, Piano, Flute, Clarinet, saxophone and beginner trumpet. I am new to the Boston area and I’m eager to teach! I have a Bachelor in Music Education from Five Towns College in New York.
I’m an easy going teacher; I like to focus on the students’ progress without putting pressure on them. I have various methods I like to use with different instruments but I also like to take into account on what the student’s ability is and what the student prefers as a choice of music. Students will benefit from my method of teaching while having fun as well.

Music has always been a large part of my life. I began piano lessons at age 5 and sang with my church and school choirs growing up. I always enjoyed participating in school musicals, band concerts, and theatre. I began private voice study at age 16, and started my own student-run musical theatre company the same year. I strive to motivate my students to be unique musicians with the confidence to pursue their artistic passions!

If you are a seasoned performer, I will guide you in developing agility, musicality, range, dynamics, and phrase shape. If you are a first-time vocal student, I will provide an engaging, supportive environment to find your voice.

My instruction is based on professionalism, experience and range from more than 25 years of singing and 10 years of teaching. I have advanced education in vocal performance and am an AmSAT certified teacher of the Alexander Technique, which allow me to integrate the intellectual and physical aspects of singing. I use my energy, attentiveness and creativity to tailor lessons towards each student's unique needs.
I base my vocal technique on the Italianate tradition of operatic "bel canto," but also incorporate broad experience in musical theater, jazz, and early to contemporary classical music.

* Healthy vocal production "bel canto"

I believe that people of all ages and personality can enjoy the wonders of music. I have been around music my entire life and enjoy everything from Classical to Hard Rock. This comes in handy because I know you learn better when you connect with the music.
I have worked with students of all ages and backgrounds from beginners to young artist recording their first album.

In college I received my music degree with a focus in vocal performance, and received an award for my work. I also participated and provided useful input to the fledgling B.F.A program at Randolph-Macon Woman's College and worked...

I love to sing, and I love to teach. Private lessons are a great place for both. Whether you're already passionate about music, or just dipping your feet in the water, I can personalize lessons to meet your needs. For me, seeing a student grow as a musician is a reward in itself. But the biggest rewards should be yours: a stronger voice, a deeper understanding of music, a whole body involved in making music, an enjoyable effort, and a growing independence to know how to handle musical and technical difficulties on your own.

My background:
I am an experienced tenor vocalist, with over 10 years of private vocal study, a BA in music from Williams College, and further study in vocal pedagogy with a Longy professor.

i've been studying voice and theatre since I was about 14 years ago. Broadway has always been my first love and when I was young I wanted to be a Broadway star. As I grew up and my voice started to mature I found a love for Opera but it doesn't really matter what I'm doing as long as I'm singing and performing! Because of my lengthy experience in Musical Theatre, Opera, Jazz and the Classical Voice I find these experiences to help my students grow in several different areas.
