Instruments: Piano Voice
Music lessons were one of my favorite activities growing up and continue to be for me as an adult. I want to give my students the same joy that I have for music, regardless of what their goals are. In the first lesson, I ask every new student what their goals area. That is how we start working together. For instance, if I know that a student is hoping to audition for a school production in a few months, I want to make sure that I include performance preparation in our lesson. Read More
Instruments: Voice
My teaching style stems from my experience as a professional singer. I’ve been in GRAMMY award winning groups and performed in plays, musicals, and choirs all around the world AND I’m still performing. Some teachers tell you what to do or how to sound, but they don’t have any idea what it’s like to live a performer’s lifestyle. They have a single way to teach all voices and all types of singing without concern for your individual needs. Read More

I find that this reflection also promotes positive self-monitoring, self-motivation, and a deeper investment for most students. I also consider open-mindedness a key factor in the success rate for vocal students. Each individual has a different experience while singing, and to hone in on this uniqueness is paramount, though tricky. Trying new ideas, new exercises, new genres, new languages, etc. is how we can best challenge our instrument to reach new heights and feats we may not have even considered before. Read More

I began teaching private music lessons a decade ago as an undergraduate music student. Working at a community music school, I volunteered to teach piano lessons and lead the choir. I fell in love with teaching and after receiving my Bachelors of Music in Vocal Performance, I began teaching private lessons and directing the commercial vocal ensemble at Trevecca Nazarene University in Nashville. While working at Trevecca, I taught many different genres of music to music majors, music minors, and elective students. Read More

What advice do you have about practicing effectively?
The key to effective practice is organization. Organization helps you stay on task and stay focused. It is easy to get stuck on one passage or on one tricky exercise, and it's even easier to forget something you wanted to focus on after yesterday's practice. Everyone is different, but in order to stay organized, I keep a practice journal. After every practice session, I write down what I think my goals for the next day should be. Sometimes the notes are more detailed (they include specific goals I want to reach or how much time I should spend on one thing) and sometimes they are more broad (things I want to get to, which I can check off and save all un-checked items for the next day).
I struggle with tendinitis, and so I have a very limited amount of time each day that I can practice without injuring myself. My practice journal helps me streamline my practice and make those few hours as productive as possible.
Why did you choose your primary instrument?
I chose the flute when I was 5 years old. I wasn't able to pick up the instrument until I was in third grade, though. In kindergarten, my music teacher would show us Prokofiev's Peter and the Wolf from time to time. At the end of the movie, we were quizzed and asked to identify the instruments we had just heard. Time and time again, without fail, the only instrument I could identify was the flute: the sound of the birds. From that time forward, I knew I wanted to play the bird's music one day. It was a match made in heaven!
What does a normal practice session look like for you?
A normal practice session lasts at least two hours, and begins with warm-ups. Warm-ups are important for the body as well as the mind -- just like in sports. I warm up for about 30 to 45 minutes, and I alternate between several different exercises designed to improve technique and intonation. After that, I move onto etudes and orchestral excerpts. Finally, I work on my repertoire. In between all of this, I take breaks every 15 to 30 minutes. The breaks are just as important as the time spent practicing. During my breaks, I can rest my hands and mind, which is especially helpful after spending a half hour on frustrating and difficult material.
What is your dream piece to perform and why?
It would be my dream to one day perform Maurice Ravel's Daphnis et Chloe Suite No. 2. I have studied excerpts from that piece for a few years now, and they are simply my favorite. Ravel is my favorite composer hands down, and the Suite No 2. from Daphis et Chloe is my favorite among the pieces he has written. The music is challenging, yet stunningly beautiful and captivating. I get goosebumps every time I listen to the piece, and I can't even imagine how much more wonderful it would be to perform it one day.
