A lot of musicians are jacks of all trades, learning multiple instruments. But the only thing I ever cared about growing up was singing. I sang as a kid with my mom.

I sang in multiple musical theater productions. Read More

My teaching style is a light. I need a student to be in a positive mood in order to have a good voice. In each lesson I inspire the student, I give them the opportunity to sing what they want. I give instructions about what can help to put the voice in right position and to singing freely. The most basic task is to explain how the throat is working and how to breath correctly during singing. Read More

Most problems beginning and advanced can be worked on in song prep. Example for advanced singers looking to improve belt range, a shortcut is to improve the soprano/mix range and then go backwards twords the belt. No one believes this works until they do it. For beginners assigning the right material is the key. It needs to be something they choose to sing that is appropriate for their level. Read More

For my teaching style, I always do my best to encourage. I love the technical side of music. I can never get enough of it.

But I love to help people explore not what is, but what could be. Music-making is my focus. Read More

  As a teacher I am not afraid to challenge students. They need to be challenged. They welcome challenges. The bigger the challenge, the greater the rewards in self-esteem and confidence are when they perform a difficult piece of music they thought they would never be able to play. Years of experience have exposed me to countless approaches when it comes to technical   exercises. I believe in scales and arpeggios. All piano students need to be proficient in them, but that is only the starting point. Read More

Aside from teaching, I also dabble as a singer songwriter, occasionally playing around Orlando. I graduated from Rollins College with a degree in vocal performance in 2014. Read More
