It is my mission to create a safe and supportive environment for my students to learn musicianship, expression, technique and have fun while doing it.  I teach because music helped me cultivate not only my voice, but also my confidence, self-esteem and ability to connect with others around me.  In my studio, I also strive to build up my students’ self-esteem and confidence in their abilities.  I aim to create life-long music lovers that find solace through performing and music.  I want my students to feel that they are special, worthy and capable of creating beauty through art.
