Instruments: Voice
My methods are based on life experience from studying with different teachers through out my career and being an AMDA graduate. I am very old school, meaning I expect them to memorize lyrics and lines, and understand what they are saying and why. I approach teaching as a teacher who still performs,and learned by doing it. I like the student to be old enough to read. I also encourage to tape their lesson for home study. Read More
Instruments: Guitar Voice Ukulele Music
At the same time I was learning percussion and drums in grade school. Two years later, I started singing and piano lessons from my musical mentor and friend Margery Heinz. I started my musical studies at a summer workshop coarse athe the University of Southern California where I studied Jazz performance. Then I attended a local community college in New England where I received my certificate of music and from there I went on to the University of Massachusettes where I received my associates of music education degree.

Instruments: Guitar Voice Violin Viola Electric Violin Fiddle
When teaching strings to beginners I tend to teach out of a string methods book but I also offer stylistic direction outside of the book. I find this method helps the student with dependency of string books and helps to harbor curiosity to the vast world of music and methods beyond one book. I offer compositions fit to the level of the student and give them the opportunity to bring them up to performance standard. Read More
Instruments: Piano Voice
As a Teacher: I have operated my own private studio in New York City for the last 6 years. As a performer I have received rave reviews from the New York Post, performed with the Utah Festival Opera Company, the Powerhouse Theatre (directed Mark Brokaw, of Broadway's "Cinderella"), Colorado Light Opera,the dell'Arte Opera Ensemble, the freeFall Theatre, and the Cedar Rapids Opera Theatre, and am represented by Gregg Baker Management.

Instruments: Piano Voice
I really don't follow a specific book or tool. As I wrote before, every person is different and I always try to empathize with my students. With the Internet, the tools are almost infinite. I focus on breathing and comfort singing. I use different warming up exercises for every person, depending on their needs. I am always excited when one of my student make progress, wheter is big or small. Read More
Instruments: Piano Voice Trumpet French Horn Music
I also heavily believe in the integration of different subjects of learning in order to enhance the application of knowledge. For instance, learning about counterpoint is the perfect opportunity to include music history to track trends and usage of counterpoint and encourage practical application in the form of composition (also creating the opportunity to learn a little about orchestration). In that example alone, there are four areas of music education wrapped up in one topic. Read More

How do I know if my child is ready to start lessons?
Private voice lessons requires a lot of focus, preparation and commitment. If you don't feel like your child is able to commit to consistent practice each week in between their lesson, but they are interested in music and want to learn more, my suggestion is to find a group music class, such as a community choir or musical theatre program where your student can learn in a fun environment amongst other individuals their age and with the same interests! It's important that children gain an appreciation for music and gain positive, fun, and freeing feelings around music learning. Because of the responsibility that comes with one- on- one lessons, putting a child in lessons before they're ready for that commitment can risk leading to negative thoughts and feelings with music learning.
When will I start to see results?
Immediately. And if you practice as suggested and stay consistent with your lessons and preparation, you will see permanent results within 2- 4 weeks.
Did you have a teacher that inspired you to go into music? How did they inspire you?
I had several teachers who inspired me to go into music simply because they believed in me. I still have teachers currently that continue to inspire me to stay in music, as it can be a difficult career path full of rejection and discouragement. It's important to find the teachers and mentors who believe in you and want to work with you to make you better. On the flipside, it's also important to keep your distance and brush off the comments you receive from those who do not believe in you. There is a place for everyone in music- you just have to find the people who believe in you and enjoy your art.
Why did you choose your primary instrument?
As cheesy and cliché as it sounds, singing chose me. It's a calling and a gift and ever since I was a little girl, I never wanted to do anything else.
Have any of your students won awards or been selected for special honors? How have they succeeded?
I am endlessly proud of my students, whether they are choosing to pursue voice professionally, or just trying to improve their voice for the next karaoke outing! I always push my students to have at least one goal in mind in order to increase motivation. Some accomplishments of my students include continuing on to pursue a Masters degree in music, singing lead roles in professional, community and school performances, being accepted into prestigious summer vocal programs, and placing in NATS chapter auditions.
What advice do you have about practicing effectively?
Carve out a set time in your schedule each day dedicated to practice. Even if you don't have an entire hour at one time, carve out 20 or 30 minute intervals throughout the day. Record your practice sessions and watch them back at the end. Make note of what you think went really well, and then what didn't go so well. Take that information into your next practice session so you can improve on the things that didn't go well.
If you weren't a musician what do you think you'd be doing instead?
Actually, as a musician, I have the luxury of pursuing many different avenues in my career. In addition to performing and singing, I also work as a Content Creator and Social Media and Marketing Manager. My personality type requires diversity in my career, so no matter what, I would be dabbling in several different things that allow me to be creative.
