Voice Lessons in Riverside, MO

Instruments: Voice Drums Orchestral Percussion

As I said above, I always want to have a fun and low-stress environment in my studio. There is nothing worse than coming in to studio practice time tight and stressed about how you may sound. There is no judgement in my studio. Everyone makes mistakes, yes, including me! (Haha) And there is no better way to improve than to make a confident mistake, because that is how we learn how to get better and what we can improve on! Read More

Instruments: Piano Voice Synthesizer Keyboard

I'm a passionate and dedicated instructor who believes in the power of music to free your self expression! I started learning piano at age 6 and never stopped. I've been playing over 20 years as a soloist, accompaniment and for church services. I also sang in the school choir starting in middle school, but I've been singing and writing poetry pretty much my entire life. About 6 years ago I started pairing piano with voice to write and perform original music. Read More

My teaching experience began when I was in grad school, where I taught a few students at a local high school. Since moving to the KC area eight years ago, I have been consistently teaching and gradually building my private studio, which now has over 20 students! I love working with young singers (specifically grades 8-12) and helping them find the potential in their voices.  I have encountered the full range of ability levels, from very experienced (had lessons before, sung multiple solos in school choir, had lead roles in musicals, etc.) to complete novice (no lessons, no choir experience).  My overall approach to lessons is the same, regardless of ability level: consistent improvement from week to week using vocal exercises, songs, and an exploration of breath and the physicality of singing.

My teaching experience is unique as my journey started when I was 13 years old. I was the Praise and Worship Leader at my church and was tasked with teaching the younger members of the praise team new songs to sing for the ministry every week. Throughout my years of high school, I was given more opportunities to nurture my gift of educating by leading musical theatre workshops to kids in the community. Read More
