Instruments: Piano Voice Organ Synthesizer Keyboard

It was fun to see my high school choir tell me to stop playing the piano as they really got motivated in singing al capella. My greatest challenges were arranging all of the band parts for a 20 piece jazz band in high school (no computer then) and then do a similar thing when I had to re-arrange SATB music to SSAA music when the expected choir became a 40+ voice women's chorus.

Students under my instruction get a grasp of more than the usual elements taught in a music lesson. I push my students to the next level. There's so much more to it than memorizing the piece and being able to play or sing it on a technical level. I want my students to be conscious of how to behave on stage, what it means to perform and not just sing the song, how to connect with their audience with eye contact, and how to deliver music while not losing sight of their breathing, diaphragm, and control.

I am all about knowledge! Knowing information about music theory, songwriting, proper vocal techniques to ensure healthy vocal chords, gaining confidence, knowing how to market or brand youself, understanding management of an artist, booking shows, knowing how to put on a show are all things we can eventually move to once we have learned the fundamentals of singing. I want to make sure you create your own sound and style! Read More

Nothing is more important to me than my students' personal goals and having a discussion on how we can achieve those goals. I always want to make sure my students are moving forward in their creative process, so I like to check in with them at each lesson to discuss their progress. It's definitely important to me that my students practice on their own (especially if we're having lessons once/week.) I like to have my students record themselves (using the voice memo feature on their phone or, if possible, another recording device) so they can listen back to their lessons and practice between lessons.

My teaching style is to be positive, energetic, and communicative throughout each lesson. I want every student to walk away from each lesson feeling good about their progress and feeling like they have learned a valuable tool to practice throughout the week. For me as a teacher, the ultimate reward is seeing a student feel proud of their accomplishments and gain confidence as a performer. I also want to encourage every student to take their talents beyond our lessons. Read More
