- Tell me about some of your current students.

Some of my students are professional singer / actors who wants to establish jazz singing techniques so I help them develop swing feel, embellishment of the melody and improvisation techniques. I also have some complete beginners and support them in building confidence in singing and guiding them how to love their voice.
