I am extremely energetic and passionate when it comes to equipping students with certain skills and knowledge about music and how it all works. I believe that music is the greatest power in todays age. It has the power to change moods, change attitudes, music is relateable, and music is a universal language that everyone seems to understand. I went to school at Middle Tennessee State for Audio Engineering, but now I am studying at Lee University online for my theology degree. Read More

I have recently finished the fourth and final year of my doctorate degree in voice at the University of Oklahoma and am currently working on my dissertation. At OU, I studied with former Metropolitan opera baritone Kim Josephson.

With my teaching, I will walk alongside the student at whatever point or level they are at to help them achieve each goal that is set. One big life motto that I keep is "One step at a time". One step at a time is how you get where you are desiring and aiming to go. Read More
