My Specialties
As a singer, I have equal experience in singing Musical theater, Christian Worship, and Classical Singing. I believe that good expressive technique is the foundation of all singing and this does not vary from style. It is the tone and vibrato that change from style to style. As far as piano, I am both an improvisatory pianist and a classical pianist. I have given lesson to students using the three hand method to develop students skills playing off of chords. I have also worked with students teaching them how to read music and play classical to impressionistic pieces.

Look Forward To Each Lesson
I've had about eight voice lessons with Andrew, and I've already improved a lot. With every lesson I learn something new and valuable. Andrew is a patient teacher who seems genuinely concerned with my progress, and each lesson is a lot of fun.
