Teaching Philosophy
I specialize in classical singing including breath work, and teach music and movement to young students based on the Kodály method. I firmly believe that music should be a source of joy and fulfillment for students of all ages, and it is my mission to instill that passion within each individual I have the privilege of teaching.
Musical Education
I completed my Bachelor’s Degree in Vocal Performance at the University of Seoul in Seoul, South Korea. I studied with Nancy Argenta and Ingrid Attrot at the Victoria Conservatory of Music and my Master of Music in Vocal Performance at the University of Manitoba under the tutelage of Tracy Dahl. I graduated from the Digital Emerging Artist Program with Manitoba Opera in 2022. I am driven to communicate with her community and am passionate about engaging them through music and storytelling.
Awards and Distinctions
In 2021, I achieved First Place in the Senior Vocal Class at the Manitoba Provincial Music Festival. Additionally, I was awarded the Runner-up position in the Rose Bowl category at the Winnipeg Music Festival the same year. Moreover, I secured First Place in the 20th/21st Century English Song category at the Winnipeg Music Festival. In 2020, I emerged as the Winner of the Concerto Competition at the University of Manitoba.

Our Promise to You
Getting Started Together
We don't offer free trials, but we do something better - a relaxed 2-lesson getting-to-know-you period. You can pause anytime with just 24 hours notice. After your third lesson, we ask for a friendly 2-lesson heads up if you need to stop.
Life Happens - We Get It
Give us 24 hours notice for any cancellation or reschedule and you'll receive full credit. Planning a family vacation or summer break? Perfect - just let us know a day ahead and we'll pause your lessons.
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.
Stopping Lessons
Need to take a break? We just ask for a 2-lesson notice:
Weekly lessons = 2 weeks notice
Every other week = 3 weeks notice
Twice weekly = 1 week notice
Summer breaks are different - no notice period needed when you return in the fall!
