I strongly believe that singing is very therapeutic. It lets one self express themselves in a way that we cannot always do in our day to day life and lets us voice our emotions. However, like any other instrument, learning to sing takes time, devotion, perseverance and practice! As a teacher, I know I have done a good job when I see my students not only improve in their technique overtime, but especially when they leave my lessons inspired and motivated to make more music!
I started singing at the Notre Dame Cathedral kid’s choir in Ottawa by the age of 8. Realising my true passion was singing, I started taking private voice lessons by the age of 15, learning pop and jazz music. It wasn’t long until I turned towards classical music, which is my true calling by doing my grade 7 and 8 Royal Conservatory of Music exams. I then did my Bachelor degree in voice performance at the University of Ottawa under the tutelage of Sandra Graham and later on completed my Master’s degree in voice performance at the University of Toronto with Nathalie Paulin as my voice teacher. Currently based in Montreal, I perform in various ensembles such as the Montreal Symphony Orchestra chorus and the Ensemble vocale Arts-Québec.

My musical journey truly started at the age of 6 when I began taking violin lessons to which I did for 10 years. I strongly believe that learning the violin helped me develop my sense of musicality and discipline when it comes to practicing.

When You're Under the Weather
If illness strikes with short notice (less than 24 hours), you'll still be charged since your teacher has reserved that time. However, most teachers are happy to offer makeup lessons when possible - they have the final say, especially if last-minute cancellations become a pattern.

Weekly lessons = 2 weeks notice
