Beginner to Intermediate Voice, Songwriting, and Piano
Don’t just learn to sing – learn HOW to sing. I tailor my instruction to the individual goals of my students – whether it is preparation for a studio recording, a live performance, an audition, or simply for the love of singing. You can have no experience, or years of experience, but it all comes down to connecting the Music to your MIND, BODY, and SOUL.
MIND
Knowledge is power. As singers, we need an understanding of Voice; different vocal registers, general music theory (pitch and rhythm), different musical styles, and the science of the vocal and respiratory systems – in order to maximize our abilities. We need to first LEARN about, and then THINK about what we need to do, in order to produce the best sound, and the best performance with our instrument - US!
BODY
Much like an athlete, a singer needs conditioning of the voice to produce the best tone, the best technique, and the best support. We’ll work through exercises to get the voice in shape, and that address specific goals for your voice; such as breath support, increased range, and vocal agility.
SOUL
You want to feel what you’re singing, and you want your audience to feel it, too. This is where we dig into the nuances of performance, and where a proper foundation of vocal science and technique, can give way to truly TELLING THE STORY.

I have been a professional vocalist since the age of 12, in both recording studios and live performance settings; and have spanned the styles of Country, Pop, Rock, Christian/Worship, Musical Theater, Jazz, R&B, and Soul. It is my greatest joy to help singers of ALL AGES find THEIR unique voice, and develop it into the best instrument it can be.
