Voice Lessons in College Grove, TN

Instruments: Piano Voice

I start lessons with a quick interview so I can get an idea of what you want with your singing, not only technically I.e. range, projection, pitch etc, but also personal goals, being better at karaoke or sounding your best in a recording studio and everything in between. We then go over basic vocal exercises, the principles of singing, any tension I see encumbering your vocal production. The last half of the lesson we go through songs, either that you pick or are assigned. Read More

Teaching music has always been my first love. I knew for a very long time, that I wanted to share the gift of music with others. I graduated from Welch College, in Nashville, TN with a Bachelor's of Music Education in 2013. I was immediately hired as an elementary music specialist for Metro Nashville Public Schools. I have taught private music lessons since 2011. After five years in public school, I decided to pursue teaching privately, full-time. Read More

I'm a passionate and motivated instructor who loves working with students and sharing my love of music. In 2016, I graduated from Belmont University with a Bachelor of Music degree in Vocal Performance. Performing all over the world has been one of the greater experiences of my life as a musician, and I've had the opportunity to play both at the Schermerhorn Symphony Center in Nashville, Grand Ole Opry WSM Radio Station, as well as touring the United States as several performances as the principle Vocalist in multiple bands.

My teaching style is completely dependent on the needs and goals of the student. However, the structure of all my lessons are similar. Half of each lesson will be dedicated to technique and half of the lesson will be dedicated to a piece/tune that the student has chosen and wants to work on. I structure my lessons this way so that way the student has agency in their own learning and can learn the things they want to learn, while also building a strong technical foundation Read More

Music is one of my parts. It's no different than my lungs, feet, or my heart. It is just as necessary to me as food and water and was a force already within me when I arrived on the scene. Music isnt just what I do...its who I am. I hope to one day inspire those who have an appreciation and love for music to have the same appreciation and love for how it [music] works. Read More

Much of my training techniques come from my experience with Voice Teacher, Dr. Joseph Collins (PhD, Vocal Pedagogy), whom I studied with while living in Nashville. Dr. Collins made clear to me many secrets to developing proper vocal execution and placement that had been a mystery before. I gained much more awareness and understanding of my own voice. I have enjoyed many years of private vocal instruction while at universities (Kent State University, Belmont University) and have learned good and valuable practices from different professors.

My number 1 goal as an instructor is to assess the needs and goals of the student, and to assist the student in reaching these goals while fostering a fun environment. Nothing is more important than finding your own personal passion, and making sure that your pursuit of your goals remains an enjoyable process. I know that studying music takes years of dedication and steady practice, so I work hard to find songs and styles that suit the student. Read More
