Teaching Style
Music has been a driving force in my life. My passion for singing and music is something I try to instill in all of my students, beyond what their reasons or goals to learn are. I believe music has a very positive impact on all of our lives and teaches us discipline, perseverance, patience, dedication, and devotion.
I am an opera singer with over eleven years of teaching experience and twelve years of performing experience ranging from small recitals to leads in major production operas. I have studied with some of the best instructors/coaches, as well as performed with many notable companies alongside other very talented singers and performers. I bring this technical experience to my instruction with all of my students, to help them learn how to properly sing across a wide variety of works and genres. But more importantly I bring my love and dedication for music
