Instruments: Piano Voice
While receiving my masters degree in Vocal Performance at the University of Kentucky I became a teacher at a youth arts academy, Academy for Creative Excellence. I never envisioned myself as a voice teacher, but as I grew to know my students and see the impact of the arts on their young lives it has become a true passion of mine.Since discovering my love for teaching voice, I myself have sung more musical theatre as it is the most popular genre I teach.

Fun, energetic and productive! My students always say that they leave their lessons with a burst of inspiration. I love to teach my students the basic tools of what it takes to be a professional musician, whether or not they are into music as a hobby or as a serious profession. I currently play drums for the hit Broadway musical (non-union version) of Rock of Ages and when I'm not on the road; Read More

In 2010, I graduated from VanderCook College of Music with a Bachelor's in Music Education. I have played in a variety of instrumental ensembles on different instruments, from euphonium, trombone, marimba and drum-set to name a few. I am motivated to helping people accomplish their goal of learning their instrument. I teach music for Chicago Public Schools and have started a music program at my school teaching, marching band, guitar, choir, drum-line and orchestra. Read More

I am a person who believes in teaching music to all ages. Through teaching I am hoping that I inspire students to follow their dreams on trying to achieve their goals in life. As a teacher I hope to gain the trust of my students by being the person that can help them progress forward in a chosen music career. I take pride in what I do. Hopefully I can encourage others to do the same. Read More

Teaching has been a part of my family since before I was born. It began with my grandmother teaching each of her children to play piano, and now they all play different instruments and family Christmas celebrations have a more orchestral feel to them. My mother began teaching elementary and high school music and choir when I was 11 years old, and now she's set to retire in two years. Through her inspiration I began teaching guitar to young kids (ages 6-10) around three years ago. Read More
Instruments: Voice
I've also found that a combination of classical and modern music can go a long way in helping students enjoy the piano and motivate them to practice and continue to learn. If a student isn't having fun in their lessons, then I'm not doing my job! My students are encouraged to enter competitions and recitals, as well as work on composing their own original material, so they can feel good about their accomplishments and stay motivated to learn.

What does a normal practice session look like for you?
A normal practice session for me can span from 20 minutes to 2 hours. I usually start by setting up the room in a way that allows for the most movement (I like to pace and wave my arms around like a crazy person sometimes). After maxxing out my movement space, I'll then sit/stand and start to warm up, which those exercises vary depending on what kind of repertoire I'm practicing that day. After getting warmed up, I'll start just running my pieces full-send, circling/noting places that I'm not as confident on and I can return to when I'm done. After that, the rest of the time is spent isolating sections and chunking them together to eventually attempt another (and more improved!) full-run.
If you weren't a musician what do you think you'd be doing instead?
Probably a professional dogwalker or cheerleader! It would be a dream to get paid for my two passions outside of music: pets and cheer.
When will I start to see results?
While you might not see results that say you're a professional, depending on the goals you'd like to achieve, you can start seeing results around the 2nd or 3rd lesson! Smaller goals allow for more achievements, and more achievements mean seeing larger and larger results the longer you work at it.
What do you think is the hardest thing to master on your instrument?
I think confidence and strength is the hardest thing to master on my instrument, voice. The voice is such a uniquely individual instrument, and there are endless ways to make a "beautiful" sound, yet there's always an element of competition and comparison. While trying to be unique comes with the territory of having an instrument no one can see, finding one's own HEALTHY & STRONG sound is the real challenge. Using common techniques and exercises is the first step to getting your own sound and finding YOUR voice, once you are confident in your skills, using that confidence is the most critical step in finding your strongest sound!
How do I know if my child is ready to start lessons?
This depends on what you'd like to use lessons for! If you want your child to simply learn basic musical knowledge, I think the time to start lessons is when they can soak in and repeat knowledge back to you.
If you'd like to start lessons to create a career path in music, I believe that any child that loves using their voice to discover the world around them (singing, speaking, yelling, echolalia, etc.) is ready to start lessons. Taking lessons doesn't inherently mean you want to become the next Broadway star (although we can definitely work with that!), it can also just mean you want to find the voice that can make the most difference in the world around you.
What advice do you have about practicing effectively?
Chunk your time! The average focus time expires around 40 minutes, so practicing for 30 minutes and then having timed brain breaks before going back to practicing helps to maintain a healthy focus within your practice session! I personally like do something completely irrelevant from music in my brain breaks. Sometimes I'll go on a small walk, answer some texts/emails, or just stare at the wall-- just anything that isn't my repertoire!

I'd like to take lessons from someone who an teach not only opera but belting. I need to learn how to do both in a healthy way and learn how to expand my range.
Janine
My 14 year old daughter is interested in improving her voice. She loves to sing and wants to sing in choir this year but thinks she needs some help to meet that goal.
Tyler
I've been a closeted singer my entire life. It is time I learn the mechanics of the voice in hopes of learning to sing better for my personal pleasure.
