Certified music teacher with a Bachelor of Music Education (Voice Concentration) from the State University of Fredonia
My Story:
I’m from a small town in New York where my dream as a kid wasn’t just to be a pop singer—it was to be a trained singer. I started voice lessons with an older, retired teacher whose studio was almost impossible to get into. I was lucky to land a spot, andfrom the very first lesson, I was hooked.She was passionate, knowledgeable, and didn’t waste time—and because of her,I went from dreaming about it to winning every vocal scholarship in my county in just a few years.
That experience changed my life. I ended up studying music education in college, and while I’ve worked as a school music teacher, I always felt pulled toward private voice teaching—the same one-on-one setting that changed everything for me.
Eventually, my life brought me down to North Carolina. While I liked teaching, I realized I didn’t love being in the school system. I didn’t want to wait until I retired to start my next dream. I wanted to build this life now, while I’m young, passionate, and performing myself.
That’s how my voice studio began.My goal is to give students the kind of focused, personalized experience I had—the kind that helps you grow not just as a singer, but as a confident artist.
