  • Bio

My primary studio includes Palm Beach Atlantic University Classical students, Broadway singers, and Pop Rock students. I also teach for Palm Beach Atlantic Preparatory Department Ages K-18. I have a private studio which includes adults, professionals, and hobbyists of all ages. My background is Somatic Voicework (Lovetri Method 1, 2, 3), Bel Canto, and workshops to include the New York Singing Teachers Association, The National Opera Association, and the National Association of Teachers of Singing. I have a variety of vocal warm-ups for each age, voice type, and vocal style. My teaching style is positive reinforcement combined with solid technique.
