Our
Story
Teaching Philosophy
My philosophy of education is to guide students in broadening their perspectives on learning, exploring their potential, and developing their unique abilities. I believe in pursuing acting and singing with both a healthy mind and body, and ultimately in finding joy in the work. In my studio, we set both short-term and long-term goals, working together in a practical and realistic way to achieve success.
I have taught voice and acting to students of all ages and levels—from young children as early as age four to professionally working adults. Through years of teaching experience, I have learned to stay attuned to each student’s abilities and natural build in order to provide the best tools for becoming a healthy, efficient, and expressive singer or actor.
As a professional performer myself, I understand the importance of maintaining a healthy voice and preparing material with confidence. My role is to guide, teach, and encourage each student so they can discover their own natural voice and grow as artists. I continue to teach because I love watching my students succeed, shine, and feel confident as they pursue their next project and beyond.
