Instruments: Voice
I am a charismatic and vivacious voice instructor who believes one voice can change the world! As a recent graduate from the American Musical and Dramatic Academy, I am trained in all aspects of the performing arts. Throughout high school I sang classically, and continued studying the style of musical theater. I have had the opportunity to perform all over the East Coast with different titles such as; Outstanding Miss Eastern America, Outstanding Miss of America, and America's Homecoming Queen. Read More
Instruments: Piano Voice Keyboard
My teaching experience started in 2002 when I enrolled at the Conservatory of Music. Initially, I accepted private students in my home whose age ranged from 12 to 50 years years old. Then, after some time I decided to join the YMCA Music Department in Manila, Philippines. Since then, I have regularly taught students at home and at the YMCA studio. When I graduated, I started teaching music in the College of Music for students majoring in Voice and Choral Conducting. Read More

Instruments: Piano Voice
Having pursued music from a young age, my experiences as a vocal soloist and choir member have brought me all over the world, performing in such musical landmarks as the Sydney Opera House, Smetana Hall, and Carnegie Hall. I grew up learning both voice and piano, and my musical education has provided me more confidence and opportunities in all aspects of life than I ever could have imagined. I began teaching while pursuing my undergraduate degree in California and have since expanded my studio to include a wide spectrum of ages, styles, and experience levels.In 2012, I received my BA in Music with an emphasis in classical voice from Pepperdine University and have since gone on to complete my MM in Voice Performance from The Boston Conservatory.

Instruments: Voice
I am passionate about singing. Whether I do it or someone else is doing it. I have been so lucky to study voice with some of the worlds greatest singers AND teachers. It only makes sense that I should pass on the knowledge that I have learned to others...So they can reach their goals! Ever since I graduated from UCF I have been a working as a teacher. Passing on knowledge is a gift. Read More
Instruments: Piano Guitar Voice
I think voice especially has always been viewed as a bit of a mystery... you can't see or touch your voice as you sing, unlike playing instruments, so there's a certain amount of imagination that has to be involved. I do my best to straddle making singing as tangible as I can, and approach things somewhat scientifically ("This muscle is used in this way," etc.) while also inspiring visualization ("Send your sound out into the distance," etc.) I also really think it's important for musicians to be diverse, so not only will we learn chord and strumming patterns on a guitar, we'll also learn how to read simple lead lines of solos, etc. Read More
Instruments: Piano Voice Trumpet Recorder Music Keyboard
This past summer I was selected as one of 18 young artists for the Up North Vocal Institute, a highly selective opera performance program with applicants all around the world. I have also played trumpet for the Marching Band, Big Band, Baroque Ensemble, and was the principal trumpet of the Moravian College Community Orchestra. I have over 30 years combined experience on my instruments, I have 21 private lesson students in voice and piano, and I was accepted to go to New England Conservatory to get my master’s in Vocal Performance in Opera.

Instruments: Piano Voice Saxophone Flute Recorder Piccolo Music
What is your dream piece to perform and why?
Khachaturian Flute Concerto. Beautiful phrases, virtuosic sections, and DRAMA. What else could you ask for?
If you weren't a musician what do you think you'd be doing instead?
I would be a chef! In both instances we are serving others, and working as a unit to produce a greta product for others to enjoy!
When did you decide to become a professional musician? Was it a gradual decision or was there a defining moment for you?
This was a gradual decision which for me started in High School and I made the decision to dedicate myself to the craft, sacrifice a lot of my time, and be open to learning and being humbled by those around me- by pedagogues and performers alike.
Why did you choose your primary instrument?
My Elementary School PS165 took trips to Avery Fisher Hall and listen to the New York Philharmonic rehearse Peter & The Wolf. I was in the 3rd grade at the time so the only reason I liked the flute was because it was shiny, loud, and got all of the attention playing melody and in the center of the orchestra. I could hear the beautiful ringing melodies, the conversations had in between sections through the music, and how musicians/ conductors tackled difference of opinions in artistic approach, standard performance practice, what is historically accurate in terms of style, intonation, phrasing etcetc.
There was so much to be said about something that requires no talking to make happen.
Have any of your students won awards or been selected for special honors? How have they succeeded?
Numerous students within my studio have won concerto competitions, orchestra seats, and chosen for masterclasses with known flutists from the New York Pops.
What musical accomplishments are you most proud of?
Going on tour with Nyack College to Asia in order to perform chamber music and going again a few years later as an Artistic Director where I would then oversee rehearsals, deal with logistics, and perform as a soloist internationally and get to give a Masterclass in Hong Kong!
What advice do you have about practicing effectively?
Practicing is just as much of an art-form as getting on stage with bright lights and playing your heart out! Go out and purchase a metronome! THAT is your best friend, and it never fails. Set a "Number Goal" for yourself and turn it into a game! Play something slowly 5 or 10 times, if you are able to play it correctly crank up the metronome 1-2 clicks. Set that same number again, if you mess up before getting to that number then go back to the previous tempo. Challenge yourself to memorize tricky passages as well. Take a tricky 8 or 12 measure section and memorize the first 2 measures to start off. Play it 10 times, then turn the stand and play it 5 times by memory- keep doing this and you will see how easily you can execute those tricky measures. Why? Well memorizing music is a greater challenge then reading that same passage which is now in front of you! So when its time to play it you can focus less on notes and nerves, and more on musical phrasing and air support!
How do I know if my child is ready to start lessons?
They should demonstrate a natural curiosity for music. Do they ask questions when they hear classical music? Do they react when they hear someone sing? Will they clap or dance on beat to music on the radio? Have they expressed an interest for a specific instrument? Another key factor is age/instrument.
A child who is very active might find something like the drums or percussive instruments more appealing then say the piano or violin which requires less movement to execute sound.
