“When love and skill work together, expect a Masterpiece.”

This quote by John Ruskin truly captures the essence of my teaching philosophy. I’m here to help each student achieve greatness by providing the appropriate technique, regardless of age or experience. I teach all ages and most singing styles. My teaching style is based on the “bel canto” or beautiful singing style which focuses on a sound that is produced with breath, free of jaw, tongue, or neck tension, with an even, flexible tone, and natural sound production. This technique can be used for every genre. I will give you the tools but progress is based on student work ethic. It is the student’s responsibility to practice and memorize songs, audition, and perform. This policy includes information and expectations for students in my voice studio. If you have any questions, please feel free to contact me. I am looking forward to getting to know you and helping you become a better musician! 

Location

In-Person Lessons will be taught at my home studio at 3844 Park Field Dr. Las Vegas, NV 89120. Virtual Lessons are available, as long as you have a strong internet connection, speaker, and electronic device (iPad, Computer, Etc.) This option can also be used in the event of inclement weather with at least 30 minutes’ notice, to avoid having to miss a lesson. Hybrid (a mix of in-person and virtual lessons) is allowable if scheduled by the first of the month.

Additional Services

Voice Masterclasses are offered on an as-requested basis as my schedule permits.  A Masterclass should only be selected after speaking with me about your specific goals and needs.  Typically, a Masterclass is scheduled in preparation for a specific event or performance.

Preparing for a pageant, audition, or voice solo would be considered part of the vocal coaching agreement.  Anything above and beyond vocal coaching, such as interview coaching, would need to be considered on a case-by-case basis.  These services would be on a per diem basis and would be consistent with vocal coaching price points.

Musicianship and Choral/Group Lessons (grouped by voice type, sight-singing, rhythm reading exercise, warm-up/vocalizes, ensemble repertoire, solo repertoire, intonation, singing in harmony, technique, ear training & theory as it relates to singers.)
