I teach adult students in mastering vocal techniques, enabling them to sing with ease, manage their breath, expand their vocal range, and express themselves fully, thereby enriching their lives through singing.

I guide teens and high school students in learning vocal techniques and repertoire to prepare them for successful admission into colleges and universities to major in music.

I am available to offer voice workshop, group lessons, choral clinic, and adjudicate competitions.

I have dedicated over 30 years to teaching singing in both Japan and the United States. Recently, I retired from Coastal Carolina Community College in Jacksonville, North Carolina, where I instructed courses in Applied Voice, Fundamentals, and Group Voice for both College and Continuing Education students. Additionally, I directed the Community Choir and Early College Chorus. My applied voice students have achieved significant success, advancing in the NATS Student Auditions at the state, regional, and national levels. Many of my former students are now teaching at educational institutions and performing locally.
