Hi! I’m a passionate music educator with over 8 years of teaching experience—5 years in public schools and 3 years teaching private lessons. In 2021, I was honored as Teacher of the Year at my public school in Rhode Island. I teach voice, piano, ukulele, and drums, and I’m trained to teach the basics of all band and orchestra instruments.

I offer coaching in voice, piano and guitar for singers, and songwriting. I work from a holistic methodology, incorporating elements of theoretical knowledge, ear training, performance technique, body awareness, mindfulness, creativity, and improvisation into my coaching sessions.

As a vocal coach, I base my teaching on voice science, ensuring that my students develop a healthy and sustainable vocal technique. I hold an Estill Voice Training Level 1 & 2 certificate and continuously refine my skills through advanced training, including courses in extreme vocals.

Hi! My name is Annie. I’m a professional vocalist, actor, and musical theatre instructor with over 20 years of vocal training and performance experience. I began studying voice at age six and have trained extensively in musical theatre, classical and contemporary vocal styles.

Why are we called to sing? We sing to commune with the depths and heights—the full range of life, but also the Life beyond the self. We channel something both ’of us’ and ‘beyond us.’ If we’re lucky, it is here we discover ecstasy and aliveness. Singing is alchemy. And all is welcome in the realm of song.

I have most recently completed my Master of Arts in Voice from the Royal Academy of Music where I also received a Licentiate of Pedagogy in Singing. I have a wide background of performing opera, classical, folk, jazz, and musical theatre having been in fully staged and orchestral backed productions.

I'm a full-time performing musician and music teacher based in San Francisco, California. Since 2002, I've been performing and recording my original music, touring internationally, and I've released seven self-produced albums. The TV Show, Grey's Anatomy, used my song, Carousel, in 2006.

I’m a professional classical singer with over ten years of experience performing as a soloist and choral singer across Canada. Teaching is a natural extension of my passion for music, and I truly enjoy helping students develop their voices and express themselves through singing.
