Croton, OH Classical Voice Lessons

We will use the classical techniques of scales and breathing exercises to open your voice to sail through your favorite arias.

I teach through Listening. Listening to your goals, listening to your passion, listening to your voice, listening for your pain points, and listening to your message. I lead the student to self-discovery and exploration using training, vocabulary, comprehension, and pedagogy. What emerges is a discovery of your true inner voice.

Classically trained operatic soprano with extensive experience on stage with companies such as San Diego Opera, Point Loma Opera Theatre, Bodhi Tree Concerts, and Musica Vitale. Bachelor’s degree in Vocal Performance from Point Loma Nazarene University. 5 years teaching experience. My vocal method emphasizes healthy, hearty sound production, excellent technique, and artistic interpretation. Let’s get to work!

My focus is to help each student find the easiest and most comfortable sound they can produce, and my goal is to always be supportive of students' individual needs so they can be confident in their progress and artistry. As someone who started out with little singing ability (an octave range, difficulty matching pitch) and who ended attending college on a music scholarship and now sings professionally and competitively, I am a firm believer that anyone can be a singer if they have the right instruction and are willing to work.
