My teaching experience dates back to my undergraduate experience, where I vocal and music directed 6 student theater productions. This includes providing one-on-one vocal instruction for leads and ensemble members and teaching full vocal scores to ensembles of over 20. I was also the music director of my A Cappella group, so I have experience auditioning, training, and rehearsing a cappella singers. I am also a trained pianist and accompanist, so I provide tracks for students virtually and live accompaniment for in-person lessons and use these skills to provide piano lessons. Read More

Instruments: Saxophone Flute Clarinet Recorder Bassoon

I have taught private lessons for 9 years, and I can proudly say that the majority of my students were accepted either to middle and high school honor ensembles, or to their colleges of choice. Before I teach any student, I make it my goal to gather as much information as I can about why they wish to study clarinet, their goals, and their long-term dreams. My job is to help those dreams happen, so I keep a database of this information to consistently reference during my time with my students. Read More

Instruments: Voice

I teach according to Complete Vocal Technique (CVT) for any level and musical genre. This method truly allows me to help singers sing in the way THEY wish to sing in, whether it's a delicate singing as in Folk music, or Extreme singing with vocal effects as in Heavy Metal. In lessons, singers and I work with a clear communication model to achieve precise results and faster development and to make sure they can recapture everything outside of the lesson as well.
