For beginning voice students, I'll introduce them to the basics of singing, such as breath support, tone, etc. We'll start with some classical songs in order to cement good technique, and then branch out into the different types of music that the student would like to explore. For beginning piano/keyboard students, we'll begin with Piano Adventures Book 1 by Faber and progress through lesson books until the student is comfortable trying solo pieces. Read More

If a student is not encouraged to try other things, most of the time they will not. Music is a way of life; it can form us into who we are, if studied regularly from an early age. If a teacher is able to develop a student's interest in   music from an early stage, the student will find that the spiritual, intellectual, and emotional rewards of such passion for music are endless.

I have loved music for as long as I can remember; Read More

I have been teaching applied lessons since 2006, when I began teaching high school students in IL.

I taught high school applied lessons from 2006-2014 in IL and TX. In 2014, I moved to OK, where I began teaching full time on the college level as a Visiting Assistant Professor of Music. Read More

My method for vocal students starts with a simple scale. I start off knowing what genres they listen to, practice, like, and dislike, and then I move on to their range.

I believe each singer is a unique individual, Therefore, the sound they make and the ideas they communicate are as unique as they are. My number one priority is to help a singer find "their special voice" through exercises that accommodate aural, and visual learning styles. These exercises lead to healthy singing and reduce tension, improve breath management, strengthen the voice, and increase range. I will also assist in my student's selection of a variety of appropriate arias and songs (including sacred, secular, and popular) for college / school auditions. Read More
