Understand your goals
We talk about your experience, the styles you want to explore, the skills you want to strengthen, and where you would like to feel more confident.
Voice lessons for children and adults—built around healthy technique, individual goals, and the confidence to express yourself through music.
I teach voice across many musical styles, using piano for scales, warm-ups, and targeted exercises. My focus is the voice itself: how it works, how to use it without strain, and how to make it unmistakably yours.
Once the voice is working comfortably and healthfully, we add style, musical expression, and performance. Lessons can also include vocal anatomy, popular music history, or the basics of reading sheet music.
Every student starts with an individual assessment—whether you are brand new, experienced, or rebuilding after unhealthy vocal habits.

You sing a song you already know. I listen for the strengths in your natural sound and watch for tension or habits that may be limiting you.
We begin with foundational warm-ups, then add exercises tailored to your voice so each lesson creates useful, measurable progress.
Progress does not have to be dramatic to be meaningful. When practice time is limited, exercises can be shortened. When singing feels intimidating, we simplify, build confidence, and recognize small wins.
My teaching is largely derived from speech-level singing and the methods of Seth Riggs. I completed teacher training with Debra Bonner, a protégé of Riggs, after studying with her privately. That training covered vocal anatomy, identifying strain, correcting technique, and teaching performance and style.
I also trained in classical voice, voice and diction, improv, acting, and musical theatre at Pioneer High School, a performing arts school. I draw from classical, choral, and other methods when a student or musical style calls for a different tool.
“I have never had a student with whom I could not make progress.”
Lessons meet students where they are. We protect the voice, adapt the work, and keep moving toward greater ease, skill, and self-expression.
