I VALUE
PLAY
I believe in the power of "what if...", being open to trying new things, and having fun while doing it. I believe that singing is about more than just “hitting the high note” - it should be fun & fulfilling. I encourage my students to embrace imperfection, take messy action with self-compassion, and welcome curiosity over self-criticism.
I VALUE
KINDNESS
I'm more than just your voice teacher. I'm your coach, cheering section, & support system all in one! Cultivating an environment where you feel safe to create through a collaborative and encouraging approach is of utmost importance to me. My goal is for you to leave your lesson feeling intuitively free, boisterously confident, and excited for your next lesson.
I VALUE
COMMUNITY
I believe in a student-first approach and seek to serve creatives of all ethnicities, races, sexes, gender identities and expressions, ages, religions, abilities, sexual orientations, and beliefs. I draw on a diverse background of training to be able to meet my students exactly where they are.
