I teach in person at my studio in the Berkshires, near Pittsfield, MA. The address is shared after your free consultation. Online lessons are available wherever you are.
-
When you book, you'll automatically get a video link. Use a device with a decent camera and microphone, and find a quiet room with space to stand. It helps to play your backing tracks from a separate speaker or your phone rather than the computer you’re on, so the music and your voice both come through clearly. If we meet on Zoom, I'll show you how to turn on “original sound” so your voice comes through clearly.
-
Not for online lessons. If you’d rather just get started, book an online lesson directly. In-person lessons do need a consultation first, since that’s when I share the studio address. Either way, the consultation is free if you’d like to talk before committing.
-
Kids, teens, and adults, from complete beginners to experienced singers. Students under 18 need a parent or guardian’s name and email at booking.
-
None at all. Beginners are very welcome. If you aren’t sure where to begin, book a free consultation and we’ll plan your first lesson together.

Water, and a song you love or are working on if you have one. If you’re preparing an audition, bring your sheet music or backing track. For online lessons, a quiet room with space to stand, plus a speaker or phone to play your backing tracks from.
-
In-person lessons start with a free consultation. Once we’ve talked, I’ll send you a private booking link along with the studio address. Online lessons can be booked directly, with no consultation needed.

All of them. Musical theatre is my own background, but my certification through New York Vocal Coaching was training in how to teach every style, not just the one I come from. The healthy technique underneath pop, rock, classical, and musical theatre is the same, and the stylistic choices on top of it are what change. Bring whatever you want to sing.

Reschedule or cancel online up to 24 hours before your lesson. Inside 24 hours, please contact me directly. Late cancellations and missed lessons are charged the full lesson fee.

By card when you book. Payments are processed securely, and you’ll get a receipt by email. You can book one lesson at a time, with no packages or prepayment required.
