My experience working with many different voice teachers and other professionals have given me a number of concepts I use to help students understand how to use their voice.

My musicial experience started at the age of 7. This was the  beginning of my formal classical piano training.  In high school I stated learning more about the fundamental concepts of Jazz. While attending Cal State for three years I quickly developed and focused on arrangment and composition for all types of music.
