I graduated the University of Arizona with a BFA in Musical Theatre. I have spent my years since graduation performing and coaching, as well as focusing on mastering American Sign Language. I work well with students of elementary school age for academic subjects, especially reading and writing, as well as high school or college students of the arts who need audition coaching and material suggestions. I have many years of training as a professional actor and singer, and excel in one-on-one scene study and monologue work. My style of teaching allows a student to feel capable and empowered, regardless of age, ability, or subject! Students should be allowed to let their imagination and curiosity grow and expand, using my guidance to think critically and discover the answers within themselves. I truly believe this leads to a love of learning!
