Play Singing at Carl Schurz Park

Creating a joyful learning experience is my mantra. As a dedicated music educator, I cultivate a relaxed environment where making mistakes is part of the journey, and experimentation is encouraged. Students should leave each session feeling confident in themselves and their abilities. My educational journey, from studying Bel Canto operatic singing at Queensborough Community College to exploring diverse styles at Berklee College of Music, has equipped me to offer students a comprehensive foundation to sing any song in any style. Join me in discovering the joy of singing while building a solid musical skill set that lasts a lifetime. For more examples of my singing and to get to know me more, feel free to listen to my music and hear me on social media.

I was recently on the first Broadway National tour of the Tony Award winning musical, DEAR EVAN HANSEN. During the pandemic, I founded a youth musical theatre program in the DC/Maryland area called OnCue Theatre which has now impacted hundreds of kids across the DMV and is now one of the top youth theatre programs in the area.
