About
I am a classically trained musician with a Bachelors Degree in Music Education from Texas State University. I also hold memberships with both the Texas Music Educators Association and the National Association of Teachers of Singing. I have studied and performed in music for over 30 years. I teach voice lessons and beginning to intermediate level piano. My teaching style is relaxed in nature. I believe that a good repore with my students is important. Learning should be fun and enjoyable. Students should be free to learn at their own pace. My instruction is always student centered as each student is unique in they're learning level and capabilities.
My biggest joy comes from helping a student succeed in reaching their potential as a musician. I especially enjoy watching the reaction of a student when they make a breakthrough achievement in an area that has previously given them difficulty.

Frequently asked questions
What is your typical process for working with a new student?
My typical process with students is to spend the first half of the lesson building fundamental basics such as rhythm and staff literacy. The second half of the lesson is spent working on a piece of music geared to the application of those fundamentals.That being said, individual home practice is key to achieve maximum benefits of lessons. Without a commitment to consistent practice, the a student is unlikely to retain the information that I impart to them as a teacher.
What education and/or training do you have that relates to your work?
B.M. Music Education w / all-level teaching certification from
Texas State University (2008)
I have 30 plus years of private vocal study.
