My teaching experience both private and classroom 1-8 at the Bishop Noland Epicopal Day School in Lake Charles Louisiana before earning a Master's degree at Yale. I must admit that when I hit age forty I felt I was an expert, more or less. An opportunity presented itself at age 45 for me to study for at least 20 hours of instruction with a member if the faculty of the Hohschule fur Musik in Franckfurt who also served as Organist Titulaire at Saint Sulpice in Paris.

Instruments: Voice

For beginners I want to break down how the voice really works. Not everyone is taught how the vibrations in our throat and body impact how we hear from each other. Once we learn the human body I jump right into vocal exercises that show the vowel differences and easiest ways to sing notes that we all used to think were too high or too low. For students who want to get ready for a competition and/or audition, its important to lock in those phrases to a T and place dynamics in a song that make your audience go, wow!! Read More

Although I may be fairly new to formal teaching, my experience working in groups and sessions has taught me an incredible amount about humility and teamwork. I believe in placing emphasis on being a well-rounded person and musician above prioritizing skill on whatever instrument my students intend to learn. Being humble only increases your chances of success, especially if your talent is backed by humility and understanding. After all, there are no business or work relationships, only relationships.

Instruments: Piano, Voice, Music, Keyboard

I work with each student in regard to his/her own singing goals- whether they be for therapy reasons, recreational/hobby, academic/school, or professional reasons. I customize lessons to include these goals and to work with the singer's strengths and weaknesses. Every lesson includes vocal warm-ups that are tailored to each singer's individual voice and gifts. Repertoire is aimed at satisfying and expanding these goals. Because of my Musical Theatre and Church Music background, I can especially help students who are aspiring or working professionals in these genres. Read More
