It's amazing how well my voice is responding to what we're doing. It's beyond belief for me at times. This whole process with you is a pure joy and is really changing my life. Thank you!

Comments from students:

"Psychologically, you gave me such a huge uplift. I have felt so good about my singing since I was last with you - it's just incredible. It's hard for me to describe the feeling I have, it's almost euphoric. I just thank you so much for how you've helped me."
- serious amateur singer

You are such a positive and deeply moving influence in my life. How to be a musician and a real person - you'll always be so so special to me.

Do you love to sing?
And does this sound familiar?

    you become tense when you sing
  
  you want more resonance and projection
  
  your breath is unstable when you're nervous
  
  your high notes feel strained or effortful
  
  you'd like your singing to be more expressive
  
  you just wish singing could be more fun!

"Singing should be a source of joy,
   and not a source of stress!"

It's difficult to learn to sing well by simply listening to your own voice. If you are serious about your singing, it's important to work with a teacher or coach on a regular basis, someone who can hear and see how you really sing.

I teach you to "feel" your voice, and what to pay attention to - details of vowel, posture, and breath that make your singing strong, expressive, and effortless. My teaching style works for all kinds of music. In fact I sing all kinds of music myself. Here are some examples.
