For beginning students, I introduce musical theatre and classical repertoire and the fundamentals of music theory.

Students are expected to vocalize every day on their own and complete any homework or songs before assigned dates. For students interested, I will also enter them into competitions and auditions where they can expand their performance experience. Read More
