Voice methodology is to learn how to make the correct sound on the flow of breath.  One must learn how to breathe whether singing loudly or softly in whichever style or genre the student wants to learn.

I'm a very optimistic person. I like to inspire my students, and watch them have fun and grow! Lessons should be a fun thing to look forward to.

As a performing professional Musician who is continually learning, I would like to pass-on what I have gained throughout numerous years of Musical experiences.
