Beginner to advanced classical vocal technique, song interpretation, diction, sight-reading, for healthy sustainable performance-level singing

Including warm-ups, repertoire, vocal technique, performance practice, breathing, phonation, pitch, diction, and musicality.

Teaching goals concern vocal and breath efficiency, clarity, optimal projection, and strength building.

Students who study with me learn a technique based on clear, focused vowels, with a ringing tone. I am able to teach art song in Latin, German, French, Italian, and English, as well as operatic and musical theater styles. I am interested especially that young singers begin on a good foundation with repertoire suitable for their voices. I help my students achieve goals such as placement in choirs and participation in vocal public performance.

I am a current graduate student at the Boston Conservatory studying vocal performance and opera. I have a wholistic approach to teaching, which includes an understanding of how your body and voice work together to produce sound for you personally. Every person has a different voice so we can't all be taught the same! I strongly believe in catering the lessons to each individual's learning style as well as the musical interests of the student.

Want to learn classical voice technique? I teach a curriculum that focuses on healthy breathing, purity of vowels, and freedom of tone that is great for beginner and intermediate singers of all ages! I believe in the joy of music, and would love to help you explore your unique instrument. I can also teach the basics of music theory, sight reading, and piano skills.

I've spent the past two years working in professional theatre! I'm currently in the business, pursing a performance career, so I'm up to date on what's happening in the regional performing world.

I enjoy teaching and want you to enjoy learning. We'll work on vocal technique and building vocal strength as well as being a truthful performer by interpreting your songs in a way that makes them interesting to watch as well as hear.

My training focuses on mindfulness of the body and allowing the voice to find freedom and truthful expression through the foundations of technique as developed through the bel canto method. Although I focus on opera, I adore working on musical theatre, jazz, and pop. I've received my Bachelors Degree, Masters Degree, and Professional Studies Certificate in Opera Performance from UNC Chapel Hill and The Boston Conservatory, respectively. I've worked professionally in DC, Boston, San Diego, and Italy. I look forward to developing a process that works for your body and your goals!

I have a Masters degree in Opera Performance, and have been singing classicaly for 7 years! I sing, and am able to teach all genres! Pop, classical, country, broadway, you name it! I also add instruction in reading music in my lessons.
