I started teaching at Shoreline Community College in their musical theatre department, leading vocal warm-ups and giving 1-on-1 coaching lessons to actors in their musicals while performing there myself. One of the greatest honors of my life was spending 2 years training under Juilliard-graduate Charles Enlow while at SCC. Since leaving college, I have worked on-and-off as a beginner-intermediate voice coach and piano/guitar teacher around the greater Seattle area. Since 2017 I have pursued by passion primarily as an affiliate music streamer on Twitch where I review full albums, perform covers of over 900 popular contemporary songs, learn new viewer-requested songs, and teach music online both on-stream and in private 1-on-1 discord calls.
