Singing lessons highlights
With two college degrees and over a decade of experience in music and performance, I bring a heart-centered, confidence-building approach to vocal coaching. My methodology blends technical skill-building with creative self-expression, designed to meet each student exactly where they are — whether they’re singing for the first time or returning to their voice after years away. Rooted in my own journey through choirs, rock bands, and musical theatre, I focus on developing a solid foundation in breath control, pitch accuracy, diction, and vocal health, while also encouraging emotional connection and authentic performance. Each session is personalized and paced with care — especially for adult learners, working professionals, and older students who want to build confidence and enjoy the joy of singing. I draw from classical and contemporary techniques, empowering students to discover their vocal identity in a safe, uplifting environment. Whether you’re preparing for a stage, a presentation, or simply singing in the shower, I’m here to help you unlock the full potential of your voice — with patience, purpose, and a little bit of sparkle.
