I'm a passionate and motivated vocal instructor in Southern California. I specialize in Master Class vocals for very advance singers, but also cover the very basics to pass on master vocal knowledge to the beginner singers. I am an artist, performer, as well as a student. I believe that in order for my students to gain higher level knowledge, the most important thing is to continue to learn.

My teaching style is generally laid back. I believe that a student will only work as hard as they want to, and I have little control over that. I focus more on finding out what will make the student want to work hard, rather than forcing them to study something that does not interest them. It's all about getting the student to have a positive musical experience. That being said, I do my best to hold my students accountable, but try to do so in an encouraging way vs. a nagging and controlling way. Read More

My main motivation in pursuing a doctoral degree in music is my enthusiasm for gaining knowledge and teaching. The dedication and generosity of teachers who I had the privilege to study with were not only inspiring to me, but also made me understand fundamental concepts of teaching. I strongly believe education can change lives and communities. Teaching with enthusiasm is fascinating, engaging, and a key factor to inspire students. I also believe that the ideology behind that kind of teaching is to create a quest for knowledge that never ends and will result in a consistent development for the student as a musician and as a person.

I encourage students to be open and ask questions during their lessons. I want to get a clear picture of every student's learning style and interests to help them achieve their goals.

I make it a point to stick with a regular lesson schedule, as consistent attendance is an extremely important factor in progress. Read More
