Teacher

I have been a professional singer/actor for 25+ years and am known for my ability to sing in a variety of musical styles including: musical theatre, pop, rock, jazz, classical, and Greek folk music. I have performed in countless musical theatre and opera productions, sung as a soloist with orchestras, bands, and ensembles, produced my own concerts/cabaret shows, and produced my own CD, Moonglow. As an active performer dealing with the myriad of variables and situations that can affect singing and performance, I feel well-qualified to teach, guide, and problem solve with singers in the various situations they may encounter while performing.

-Vocal exercises for strength and flexibility

-Application of vocal technique to repertoire

-Stylistic aspects for each genre (musical theatre, jazz, country, classical, pop, rock)
