Troutdale, OR Classical Voice Lessons

I teach classical voice, and work with students developing a proper healthy technique from a classical point of view.

I've been teaching Voice for several years, and my students have gone on to perform in symphony choirs, operas, and work as solo artists. Within the first few lessons, you'll be able to sing a song from memory, and as time goes on you'll have a full repertoire list of pieces ready to go! I specialize in opera and art song. I love working with students of all ages and experience levels, and I can't wait to meet you!

Music is a language. If you wish to improve your overall musical abilities, learn how to be more expressive, and become more fluent in the language of music, these lessons are for you. I have over 20 years of experience in music and 10+years in teaching at schools, privately, church teams, and traveling with recording artists. No matter your skill level or abilities, we can make progress together in your musical life.

I have been teaching professionally for 5 years and privately for 10 years, specializing in beginner/intermediate/advanced musicians. I teach voice, violin, guitar, and trumpet. I specificaly teach mariachi music but I also have knowledge of other genres of music. Lessons are customized and catered to the needs/goals of each student. Not only will you be playing/singing songs in no time, but you will be building a strong foundation of note reading, music theory, ear training, sight reading, technique, and more. I believe learining music should be a joyful experience and one that will be a positive change in your life. I want my students to reach their musical potential and aspirations while having a wonderful time!

Working towards an audition? Want to improve your technique?Together, we'll work to identify and achieve some tangible goals in a way that's fun and relevant to how you want to practice music in the world. I can help you learn to use your body as an instrument, and develop a high quality sound. If you struggle with confidence, we can work with and through emotional blocks to help you better connect with your voice and a sense of expression.

With over 15 years experience singing, I specialize in teaching beginner and intermediate students. Lessons involve learning proper breathing technique, enunciation, and strengthening the voice so that students can sing more freely. I can also help with sight-singing. My additional background in theatre means lessons include tips for how to perform the song most powerfully; whether it be a musical theatre piece or a country piece, each song tells a story. I teach many genres of music, and believe the confidence gained from honing your natural singing abilities can be beneficial in every aspect of life (not just music).

My teaching mantra is that all styles are possible through classical technique. I like to have fun too, so once we put in the work, its time for the fun! I also believe that unless you are truly tone deaf, anyone can be taught to sing properly and beautifully! Join me on the journey!

Hello there!

So you want to sing?! Great!

No matter whether you wish to sing Pop, Rock, Opera, Country, Blue, R&B, Gospel, Contemporary Christian, Classical, musical theatre etc it is important to have a reliable TECHNIQUE that you develop over time.

I spent almost 4 years studying Vocal Performance in University and graduated early with high honors. I can teach you what I learned and what I had to figure out on my own to develop the technique which recently landed me a role in an Emmy-winning tour.

If you're ready to do the work necessary to sing well, hit me up!
