I was classically trained at U. of M. under the direction of Hugh Thompson (Met House of Opera Musical Director) and Ms. Annabel Parra. I have a strong foundation of techniques.

I have taught and coached voice for several years and am available for students of all experience levels and ages! I structure my lessons so that students gain experience in the genre of their choice, while also building a strong foundation rooted in classical technique. I use this technique as a basis for development over any genre of music. I am also available to teach fundamentals that are often required for vocal success, such as, beginner piano, music theory, and ear training.

I am a firm believer in asking questions, for myself and my students, so that we can come to a better understanding of what techniques work best for you in each lesson and track your progress from week to week.

My vocal technique also included Operatic Vocalization exercises, vowel and constant vocal exercises to get the strongest sound with the least amount of effort!

We will focus on developing breath control and vocal stamina, we will start with art songs and work up to arias. We will work on vocal technique as well as musical expression.

Advanced & proper technique will be taught in order to sing aria repertoire correctly & safely.
Let's take your music up a quantum leap to a level never experienced before!

I believe in teaching from experience and preparing my students for the real world. I have a Bachelors and a Masters in Voice Performance. I also have experience working in a few top Opera Houses and many Theaters. I love to teach, I believe that we need to prepare the future generations so they may give back to society, and in order to do this, they need to be taught with structure, sensitivity to the student's preferences in genre and style and with lots of enthusiasm and good vibes.

My teaching curriculum emphasizes on proper breathing and vocal placement to ensure vocal improvement within a few weeks of lessons. All of these terms may sound scary, but I believe that singing should be a joyful experience and one that will be a positive change in your life and those around you. I teach all genres of music and specialize in audition preparation. I want my students to reach their musical potential and aspirations while having a blast.

We will explore how the voice works and how you can sing different genres with a healthy technique! I'll teach you how to sing anything you like, in a healthy manner. Our voices are so delicate, let's take care of them!

Classical or musical theater? School? Church? I'm here to help you achieve your goals. It's all about you. We'll talk about vowels, breath, performance practice, musicianship, auditions, vocal health, and a whole host of other topics. I'm a professional opera singer with an MT background, and I've taught pop and crossover music, so nothing is off limits for us. Let's master the technique together so that you can better express yourself in every situation.
