Through my undergraduate and graduate school years, I have held secular and liturgical studios and teaching experience in many varieties. I have had 6 years' experience as a choir director and 6 years alongside that as a private piano teacher. My specialty is classical music, but I believe that music as a cultural language can cross much more than disciplines, and I encourage that mindset with my students. I believe in self-efficiency in practice and performance, and self-efficacy in review and feedback. Read More

It is my belief that EVERYONE can sing, you just have to practice. A typical lesson involves a 10-15 minute warm-up, depending on the length of the lesson. That is followed by working on the songs that a student has prepared for the week. I like to work on a variety of songs to prevent boredom and frustration if a song is proving to be difficult on a particular day. Read More
