As a bass opera singer and professional voice over artist, I am dedicated to creating a healthy and beautiful sound with my own voice and the voices of my students. I will not come into our lessons saying there is a single way to sing. In fact, many genres require a great deal of varying vocal techniques and stylized voices. What I will do is help to lay a foundation in healthy singing so that you feel comfortable singing any genre. We will start by ensuring that your breath and vowel placement feels comfortable and from there move into repertoire of your choosing or some that I recommend based upon your interests. You will leave your tenure with me empowered to continue your passion and career for singing long after your lessons end. Music is meant to be shared. Together, we will help you to share the music and passion that you hold so dear.

Music Lessons should be fun!
Finding the right Piano or Voice Instructor will shape the way a student feels about music. When we make music we share a vulnerable and very unique part of ourselves. As a teacher, I strive to encourage, inspire and create an atmosphere for learning that is uniquely different for each of my students. My teaching style focuses on important skills but also emphasizes self-exploration and perhaps discovering a passion for something new. Take a look at the lessons I provide and choose the right one for you.

Armed with a voice degree from one of the top voice departments in the nation, and the experience of teaching hundreds of different singers, from professional opera singers to 60-year-old doctors of music, and touring with international opera stars Andrea Bocelli and Denyce Graves, I can help guide almost anyone to improve their classical voices. My singing students have won pageants, competitions, parts in plays and musicals and entry into the best magnet programs and universities.
Please note that I do not accompany, but my students are welcome to bring their own accompanist or accompaniment tracks.
