In 2004 Icompleted my bachelor's degree in vocal performance with a concentration in opera from Shenandoah University (so much more engaged, excited, and subsequently successful than I was in my first college experience!). While taking a course about the anatomy and physiology of singing, I found a perfect marriage of my analytical background/skills and my passion for developing people. Intending to pursue a performance career, I unexpectedly found I loved teaching voice and a second career was born! Read More

I enjoy helping young musicians recognize that early. As long as they keep pushing themselves, they will continue to be great. Read More

In college, I taught private music theory lessons to a given curriculum. I also music directed a male-voiced a cappella group, conducted a chamber choir, and music directed and accompanied several musical theater productions.

My teaching style, particularly with my younger students, is to combine yoga-like breathing and proper posture to develop their voice naturally.

I like to teach voice in a free, forgiving environment where mistakes are encouraged. Read More
