Singing is the ultimate journey of authentic expression! It's not something you have or don't have- like anything there is just technique and practice. I teach using the principles of Bel Canto singing and Somatic Voicework, which just means that I have a classical foundation (that's what I study/do), but have a passion for all styles and can teach all styles! The voice is a holistic instrument, a combination of the body, heart, mind, and spirit of every person, and I always approach it with that in mind. My goal is to give everyone the tools to use their voice how they want to use it, and guide them to a healthy, efficient, optimal, authentic sound that is their true inner voice. Headed into my Masters degree in Classical Vocal performance, I love teaching all levels and backgrounds!

I specialize in the diagnosis and correction of vocal challenges in the context of repertoire and interpretation.

My methods of voice training are founded in a technical understanding of the function of the voice, body awareness, and breath control. I have been singing myself since a young age, and have studied formally with privately with world-renowned teachers and performers for a decade - I aim to help you achieve a healthy control of the voice, basic or advanced musicianship skills (if necessary) and an understanding of vocal repertoire of any genre of your choice.

I have been teaching voice for 30 years. I teach all levels - beginning through advanced. Singing with excellent technique and development of your artistry are the goals of my teaching. You will learn classical songs as well as songs in whatever style you choose. If you do not read music, I will teach you. We will also study solfege which is a method of ear training and sight reading. Lessons begin with vocal exercises and move on to singing songs.

Helping students to enjoy the music and learning good music knowledge.
