Berklee College of Music Scholarship
As an artist myself, I know how vulnerable it can be to share your voice. I also know that it is one of the most beautiful and gratifying ways to express yourself. With 15+ years of experience performing, recording, arranging and coaching vocals, I'm very confident I can help you reach your singing goals! I graduated from Berklee College of Music with a Major in Songwriting and as a Vocal Principle. I really believe in creating a fun and safe space for my students to grow. You probably won't have a difficult time getting a laugh out of me. I'm looking forward to meeting new people and hopefully creating beautiful coach/student relationships. I also love astrology, psychology, action movies, cooking, writing, yoga, and animals!
I began teaching back in Boston when I was finishing up college. I immediately loved it and have been teaching now for over 7 years. I love teaching online and in person lessons in my studio, but I have also taught at various schools. I really focus on making my student comfortable and eager to learn more. I love music so much and I hope some of that shines through and inspires my students. I have also helped prep my students of all ages for various auditions, performances, recitals, etc. Recently I had my longtime student in a professional recording studio for the first time and coached her through that process, which was very cool to witness!
I like to approach vocal lessons from a technical and holistic standpoint. A typical lesson for me usually begins with whatever warm-ups and exercises I feel fit our goals, and a check in to see how you're doing and if there is anything in particular you want to focus on improving. I have a lot of really effective exercises that'll get your voice where you need it to go! I work a lot with placement and support in my singing lessons, and I use a lot of visualization techniques to get you in the right placement. We work a lot on strengthening every part of your voice, especially your mix so you can sing a wide variety of things! I'm a really positive and uplifting coach. I'm not a very gruff or strict teacher, so if that's what you think you need I may not be the best fit. I try to make my lessons a fun experience.
I approach teaching with an empathetic, open mind. I truly want to get to know my students and their goals, so I can help them the best I can. I'm very patient and will push a student to do more but at their own pace. I help students use mindset and visualization tricks to unlock new potential. I'm very motivation oriented and encourage my students as best I can when things are more difficult. I like to give my students digestible workloads so they can really focus on one thing at a time. I also like to encourage students to bring in music they themselves like that we can learn!
