About Me:
I have always loved making music and singing, and sharing the art of music with others. I teach care and cultivation of excellence in one's unique vocal instrument, healthy and graceful expansion of range, breath capacity, and focus. Great singing is born from dedicated, conscientious practice, belief in one's gifts, and a commitment to cultivating and nurturing them. Questions are welcome.

Pianos are popular instruments for private household ownership and have gained a place in the popular consciousness, and are sometimes referred to by nicknames including: "the ivories", "the joanna", "the eighty-eight", and "the black(s) and white(s)", "the little joe(s)". Playing the piano is sometimes referred to as "tickling the ivories."
