I am dedicated to fostering an encouraging environment and musical growth for students of all ages. I structure lessons so that they are both fun and productive, thoughtfully building good habits of musicianship. My flexible teaching methods and positive, encouraging attitude support students of many ages and skill levels, whether just beginning or experienced, children or adults. I love helping my students find their voice and musicality! We build long-term habits of healthy and flexible vocal production, taking into consideration appropriate musical styles.

I've been teaching voice lessons for over ten years, with online lesson options since 2020, and I have been a vocal masterclass clinician for music workshops including ISOCM and Madison Early Music Festival. I hold a BA in Vocal Performance from Augustana College and a Master of Music degree from Boston University. 

​

As a performer, I have recently appeared locally and around the United States with the Bach Society of MN, VocalEssence, the Minnesota Chorale, the Rose Ensemble, VOCES8 Scholars, and the Boston Camerata, and on a GRAMMY-nominated recording of the Divine Liturgy of St. John Chrysostom with the PaTRAM Institute Singers. My flexibility as a performer means I can support students who are interested in a wide variety of styles as we establish a foundation of vocal freedom.

I am always inspired by the imagination and joy students discover when they choose to make music!
