I combine the technique, expression, and performance practices from my teaching line of musical masters with more modern teaching methods to give students a well-rounded music education. I cater each lesson to the individual needs and interests of the student, while giving them a strong technical foundation and fostering their love of music. I use scales, arpeggios, and other methods to help build technique. I also want the student to enjoy what they are performing, so I often ask the student if there are pieces they would like to learn and do my best to find an arrangement suitable to their level of difficulty.

I'm an upbeat instructor who loves helping young singers realize their own potential. I pride myself on teaching not only the HOW but also the WHY technique works. No matter what the style the singer wants to perform, I firmly believe a solid base in classical technique can be transferred to any style. I have performed with multiple symphonic choirs and also had the chance to sing backup for Madonna at the Super Bowl in Indianapolis. Read More

I love the "light bulb" moment they have when they figure out a technique or can play a passage of music successfully. Read More
