I believe music to be an innately communicative expression, with a distinct enmeshment of all major art forms: theater, dance, visual, and literary art. I approach teaching voice very naturally-properly utilizing the breath, posture, speech, and interpretation. I'm most passionate about uncovering each student's unique voice, clear of imitation and timidity. I'd like to aid in helping you sound as the most confident, competent, sensitive, and healthy "you" imaginable. I like to start using editions of Leonard's Soprano solos. Read More

Our voices are as unique as we are as individuals. I approach each student and sometimes each lesson from this perspective. Fundamentally singing is an aerodynamic process. My primary and most fundamental objective is to give my students pathways to understanding and using the power of breath to energize their singing. This energy is required regardless of vocal style. My ultimate aim is to give my students more tools and more colors in their vocal palette so that they become the artistic communicators they want to be. Read More

For beginning students, I start out with an Italian art song out of the the 24 Italian art song book. This helps with diction, breath support, and vocal line. Once the student has progressed, I will begin to introduce solo repertoire and let the student choose a couple of songs that he or she would like to sing. For adults, I also start out with an Italian art song, but also find out what the student is interested in and guide my instruction to keep the lessons engaging, encouraging, and fun no matter their ability level.

My favorite part about teaching is discovering how each student learns and using their strengths to enhance their trouble areas. For example, I use a lot of manipulative and physical movement for many visual and kinestetic learners whether its solfege hop scotch, ball bouncing, drawing, etc - students will learn fun and creative ways to learn musical concepts and discover their voice. Developing a whole and healthy voice and musical ability is my ultimate goal for each student and I will make sure to find a path that fits each individual student. Read More
