sharing Music and Movement.

I believe that sharing my knowledge and skillset with others in the studio is just as important as sharing it onstage. And while I believe structured, measurable growth is essential, I believe that it will look different for every developing artist. The way people communicate, learn, and experience the world around them informs my ‘curriculum’ just as much as their goals. Every artist’s journey looks different, and I truly enjoy guiding my students and creating opportunities that stretch their limits.

I teach private, semi-private, and group lessons for voice and dance, as well as stage combat/fight choreography workshops. Check out more about my voice studio below.

What are Lessons like?

My voice lessons develop the vocal and performance abilities in students of any age. I focus on healthy technique in classical, musical theatre, and popular styles. The first half of lessons typically center on technique (both for overall growth and targeted skills) and the second half of lessons are generally focused on a student’s individual musical repertoire. I am happy to help students meet particular goals like auditions, competitions, or performances. Since every voice is different, I tailor lessons to fit each student's needs.

My philosophy:

The human voice is complex and immensely expressive. Helping each student craft their best sound, ultimately, creates meaningful communication through aural art. My responsibility to each student is to hone their unique voice by removing the technical and mental barriers to their success.

my credentials:

I hold a Master of Music in Vocal Pedagogy (New England Conservatory ‘17) and a Bachelor of Music in Vocal Performance (University of Houston ‘14). At the New England Conservatory of Music, I studied under Dr. Ian Howell and focused on issues at the intersection of women’s health and the singing voice, which drastically shaped my approach to performance and teaching. I did a deep dive into the relationship between hormones and the voice, which informs so much of our vocal health, yet is often overlooked. I have successfully presented vocal research to the greater scientific community, and continue to develop my own technical and theatrical skills to benefit my students. I’ve become obsessed with building resilient, healthy voices—of all types.
