A little bit about me ...
Almost from the start, my love and pursuit of piano, voice, and theater have been inseparable. I started piano lessons when I was six and music has shaped and guided my life ever since.
I began teaching piano when I was fifteen, under the direction of my teacher. In college, intending to become a professional pianist, I spent one year studying piano pedagogy for beginning and intermediate students. Then I attended my first opera. It was a revelation—and it started me on a new musical path. I have always loved to sing and from an early age I was involved in musical theater. My first roles included the principal singer in Here Comes Suzy Snowflake, Annie, and The Ugly Duckling. I also belonged to several children's singing troupes that toured my home state. However, in classical music I found my home.
In high school I studied languages, literature, and music theory. After being accepted into a university vocal program, I continued these studies and also studied vocal pedagogy, performance skills & psychology and recital preparation. I finished my degree in vocal performance and pedagogy. During that time, I was privileged to perform roles in productions of Carmen, Rigoletto and Manon. My most memorable role, however, was as Cherubino in Le Nozze di Figaro.
I have continued my study of piano and voice through the years with several master teachers. After more than two decades of teaching piano and voice, I specialize in beginning to early advanced piano students and beginning to artist level voice students of all ages. Some are just starting out on their musical journeys; others have many years of study behind them. I feel a particularly strong desire to help young students find their way in what can be a difficult and competitive world.
Every student of music deserves a teacher who not only believes in them but supports them in a positive way no matter what their goals or potential may be. Several of my students have gone on to music degree programs in college and careers in music, while others have gained a gift that is theirs for life. I believe music should be available to all who have a desire for it. I look forward to sharing my love of this art form with you.
