Personal StatementÂ
I am incredibly passionate about Vocal Music and Theatre. I believe that the arts give us an opportunity to express ourselves and connect with others on a higher level. I am even more passionate about teaching. I try to challenge my students every day to think on a deeper level about the art they are trying to create. I try to help my students develop confidence in themselves and strengthen their ability to connect and communicate with their audience.
