Top Singing & Voice Lessons in Gwynn Oak, MD

Have you’ve always wanted sing publicly but were too afraid? You sing in the church choir but deep inside you want to sing a solo. Maybe you want to be in your school talent show, or get ready for your next audition. I bring over 20 years experience as a professional vocalist, recording artist and educator to coach you to confidence so you can “Take Your Stage” as a singer. Whether you're 6 or 60, I teach children and adults the performance and the technical aspects of singing. Learning, growing and having fun, that’s the class assignment! Looking forward to seeing you “Take Your Stage!”

I focus on proper technique and breath, as I am a very firm believer that with a solid technique, students can safely and successfully explore whatever genres and repertoire they want. I like to spend about half the lesson working on technique and warm ups and half of the lesson working on music, but of course that varies on what the student wants to work on and what I feel is appropriate.

As every student is unique my teaching style really depends on the student! Some want to learn for fun, others are studying for exams or college. As a result its really important for me to tailor my lessons towards each student and what they would like to work on. For some that could mean working on vocal technique, others working on music and repertoire. I’m adept at adapting to each student’s individual talents and vocal needs and therefore its important that for that each student progresses at a pace that they are comfortable with.

Please see my profile.

Hello! I am an actor, singer, and teacher in NYC. I was an adjunct faculty at NYU Steinhardt Vocal Performance program 2017-2019. At NYU, I taught private voice lessons to NYU students for 2 years, from beginner to advanced singers. My goal is to find your "authentic" voice so that you can sing in a healthy and sustainable way across the genres. (classical, music theater, pop/rock, R&B/soul, country, etc.) I have developed a style of teaching that is efficient and flexible. I will cater my lessons to your needs!

I also studied voice science (vocology) through the NYU Voice Center under the SLPs and Laryngologists, so I understand how the vocal system works. I will provide explanations that make sense using anatomy and physiology!

My teaching style is “taller-made” for each student and his/her development. Since singing is a combination of technique and expression, and is very physical and emotional, I aim to help each of my students gain that balance of emotionality with technique!

I have over 20 years experience teaching students of all levels - from Broadway to singers that sing just to feed their soul. My technique is organic and positive. I help my students strengthen their voices, increase their range and gain confidence. I help singers prepare for auditions and choose appropriate material for their range. I have a MFA in Musical Theater and a member of the National Association of Teachers of Singing.
