Instruments: Guitar Voice Acoustic Guitar

I started teaching voice while at Purchase College and then focused on performing and writing, and came back to teaching last year. I use the techniques I've learned from my vocal teachers along the way, as long as my own ideas and perspectives on healthy, correct ways to sing your best. I believe strongly in teaching technique and basic theory in addition to singing whole pieces and performing.

I encouraged my students to practice on a daily basis as I did to build up their confidence and passion for the instrument. Read More
