My love of singing began in my freshman year of high school, when I joined the choir. It was a life-changing experience, and inspired me to make music my career. I immediately began taking private voice lessons, and became a voice teacher myself by 2005. While in college, I was presented with many opportunities to learn and grow, both as a musician and as a teacher. I sang in several different collegiate choirs, and was nominated to be in the all-collegiate choir in 2007. I also passed yearly auditions to sing in Voices Only, Lindenwood's most advanced vocal group. During my junior and senior years at Lindenwood, I worked as the assistant director of Voices Only. This was a wonderful opportunity, and I learned so much while leading warm-ups every day, running sectionals on a weekly basis, directing the group during rehearsals and even during performances when the director was away. I currently sing in the Saint Louis Harmony Chorus, one of the top 25 women's barbershop choruses in the

My goal as a voice teaching is to make singing efficient, artistically satisfying, and fun! I believe that all styles of singing can be produced healthily and no style is inherently better than any other. Within lessons, I focus on breath management and resonance so that students can acheive the sound they want in a healthy manner that doesn't fatigue their voice. I teach various styles including classical, musical theater styles, and contemporary commercial music aka. pop/rock. I am influenced by evidence-based singing practices, historical singing teaching, and speech language pathology practices.

I am a classically trained singer with over 10 years of professional experience. My specialty is early music but have performed extensively in opera, jazz, music theatre, and folk. My focus is a holistic and healthy technique to give confidence and power to any vocal style.
