- What is your typical process for working with a new customer?
In our first lesson together, we typically take time to explore the voice and get a sense of the baseline for the student's vocal and musical abilities. But I also work with the student to develop a practical mindset and create a positive framework for cultivating a great singing technique. I value every singer, no matter what their level, because private lessons are a significant investment, and my hope is to see that every student not only improves as a singer but comes to understand the skill of singing so that they can continue to grow.
- What education and/or training do you have that relates to your work?
I have a B.A. in Music from North Park University with several years of private study under such master coaches as tenor David Holloway and Randy Buescher of the Your True Voice studio. My continuing education has included level one certification in Somatic Voicework -The LoVetri Method - which is a program training vocal teachers and coaches in methods for Contemporary Commercial Music. I am also a member of The National Association of Teachers Of Singing which provides continuing research in the field of vocal science and education.
