Since my graduate degree days 25 years ago , I have been steadily teaching both as a private instructor, and in classroom situations... I'll confess that, while group lessons do foster an energy that can be exciting, the reality of dividing my teaching attention between multiple students is not quite as exciting at putting ALL my effort and attention int one private student!

In my studio I treat the voice as a reflection of the soul. Each person has beautiful soul, each voice can, and should be beautiful, and strong.

In training my voice classically, I had the very best instructor who taught me how to sing the healthy way. Read More

I encourage setting realistic goals and finding ways to consistently inspire and motivate my students to propel them forward in their studies. Read More
