MY RESPONSIBILITIES
I teach with kindness, encouragement, and a focus on both your strengths and ways that you can grow. Each lesson blends vocal solutions, fun, and clear guidance to help you reach your full vocal potential. And, I will create a personalized plan to help you reach your goals, with music that inspires you.

STUDENT & FAMILY RESPONSIBILITIES
Students agree to arrive at each lesson on time, well-prepared, and with their assignments done. To make good progress, daily quality practice is necessary. Please ask questions about home assignments so the student and parents can completely understand the assignments and goals.

Parents: If something is happening at home or school that is affecting your child please let me know. The more information I have, the more I can be sensitive to the needs of your child.

DIVERSITY, EQUITY, and INCLUSION
All students are welcome and respected, regardless of their race, religion, national origin, gender identity or expression, sexual orientation, age, or disability status. I also have experience with MTF trans vocal feminization.
