I have a Bachelor of Arts in Music, with a concentration in Vocal Performance, and a Master's Degree in Classical Vocal Performance. I've studied voice and performed for over ten years in the communities I've lived in: San Francisco, San Luis Obispo, New York, London, Paris, and now, Sacramento. I have both solo and choral performance experience, including solo recitals and operatic roles. I've mainly focused on classical singing during my music education; however, I also have experience with ska, musical theater, jazz, and pop. I served on the Vocal Department faculty at an Arts high school in San Francisco, and now teach voice lessons in my private studio in Land Park, Sacramento.
