I started voice lessons the year before I went to college. I always loved music and singing, no matter the genre. I fell in love with opera shortly after starting at Westminster and found my passion in performing the classical art form. I have been fortunate in that I have always been surrounded by amazing teachers who were passionate and driven. They always pushed me past what I thought I was capable of and guided me along the way.

I have developed a method for guitar students of all ages to quickly learn chords and scales so that they can not only learn the chord progression to songs, they can also find the correct scale to "solo" and improvise over them.

I have also developed a full curriculum for teaching bass guitar to all ages and skill levels. Read More

Music has been an integral part of my life since then with my elementary and high school years filled with festivals, concerts, auditions and competitions. Read More
