I have been teaching private voice lessons in the Littleton area for over 25 years now! But my musical journey began as a child who couldn't stop singing, playing the piano, and performing in such programs as the Colorado Children's Chorale. I enjoyed top choirs and lead roles in many musicals throughout my attendance at Wheat Ridge High School. I was accepted with part scholarship to the University of Denver's Lamont School of Music. I acquired a Bachelor of Music in Vocal Performance after performing in elite roles in the Lamont Opera and Musical Theatre programs and studying vocal pedagogy, music theory, and music history. I have participated in extensive choral work throughout the Denver area and I currently sing with the Columbine Chorale. I have also given several solo recitals and been cast in roles in community theatre programs. I was a member of the National Association of Teachers of Singing (NATS) for 20 years which included preparing and accompanying students to voice competitions each year. Several of my students won 1st and 2nd place in these competitions. My students annually participate in All-State and All-State Jazz choirs and they frequently get cast in major roles in their school musicals. My students have gone on to major in vocal programs throughout the nation and several have become voice teachers themselves. They have been part of London West End casts, Santa Fe opera, and have become known actors in Hollywood. My husband and I love to tell the story of how we met in Opera Theatre class and we still frequently perform duets together. We have 3 beautiful and talented children.
