I’ve been teaching for 15 years. It’s the most predictable habit I have. My experience is all within a private practice, so come on in if to shed academia in favor of self-directed discovery. I work well with professionals, retirees, teens with attitude (and chill parents), hyper-fixated hobbyists, and everyone in between.

Lessons with me are super nerdy and you’ll be pleasantly surprised how unceasingly excited I am about how your instrument works and how good you’re doing at it. My students are all at different experience levels- and are all curious cats. Also, I have cats. Get some nuance in your practice.

Specialties: Diagnosing and reworking vocal “faults” (it’s not your fault); resonance/tone; extended techniques; stylistic nuance (classical, theater, experimental, metal, pop); and practice cultivation.

Now teaching at: Anoka-Ramsey Community College; South High School; my living room.
