I have had success in combining my music education and music therapy skills to help students accomplish musical goals while also addressing behavioral goals such as increasing verbal or nonverbal communication.

About the time I started a family, I consolidated my teaching, opening a home studio while maintaining my position at the boarding school. Since 2006 I have taught every year in a summer arts program for gifted and talented youth, only taking off the summer of 2013 while on maternity leave.

It was then that I discovered how much fun teaching can be and how rewarding it is to help another singer grow and discover new things about their voice. In 2010 I moved to the Lehigh Valley and began teaching at Muhlenberg College in Allentown, PA. Read More
