I am a Seattle-based singer and voice teacher currently accepting new students of all levels.
Do you love to sing but have stage fright? Afraid of performing in front of others but are drawn to the stage? Are you shy/introverted but feel the need to express yourself musically? Me too! I absolutely empathize with all of these feelings, and would love to help you work through this through song. Music is healing. It is nurturing. It is necessary. And it is these sensitivities, our vulnerabilities, that connect us to music, which allows us to fully express who we truly are. Or perhaps you have been singing in choirs for years and have vocal fatigue after rehearsals/performances? Maybe you have issues navigating through register breaks? Are struggling with expanding your range?
No matter where you are in your musical journey, I would be happy to work with you!
I am a classically trained soprano and have learned from a solid, healthy technique for many years. I study with opera singer Susan Gundunas, UC Berkeley, who studies with renowned voice teacher Jane Randolph, San Francisco Conservatory of Music. The Jane Randolph Vocal Technique has been established as an esteemed method by many respected singers, including opera singer Frederica von Stade. I would like to share this with you and help you to become a better, healthier and happier singer! This technique works for any singing style to assist you in keeping the voice fresh and healthy for many years. My lessons address breath support, proper alignment, personal expression and more. I have a sensitive, positive teaching style and I will work with you very patiently and supportively. I have found so much joy from free, healthy singing and it is my goal to help you experience this same joy in your musical journey.

I look forward to working with you!
