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.

This is my field of expertise. I have a Masters Degree in music, majored in Opera. I have sung the role of Carmen 100 times, 70 roles on stage

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.

I emphasize a vocal technique rooted in the classical tradition, because it provides an excellent foundation for any style the student is interested in singing.

I have had significant formal musical training, as well as years of experience working as a singer and teacher. I have performed and taught in a variety of styles, including opera, classical, pop, folk, and musical theater.

Learning to use proper breath support, resonance, and clarity of tone are all important aspects of singing, regardless of the style being sung. I typically use individually tailored vocal exercises to teach technical details at the beginning of the lesson. We also work on specific repertoire choices aimed at improving those newfound technical skills.
