About
Hi! I am a Brooklyn-based French-Australian singer, composer and performer. I have 15 years of experience teaching singing and musical theatre and love it very much, and I would be delighted to be a part of your singing journey.
I currently teach at the New York Conservatory for Dramatic Arts as well as other institutions.
I moved from Paris three years ago where I was teaching voice, choir, musical theater, theater, improvisation and rhythm in several prestigious conservatories and i loved it very much. I also co-founded the Modern Music department at Conservatoire du 7e and the Young Singers Deartment at the Conservatoire du 16e.
I studied in Australia, Paris and NY in jazz and classical voice, musical theater and improvisation.
I write and compose experimental musicals and regularly perform new music and musical theater in prestigious projects and venues in Paris, New York and Australia.
Please don't hesitate if you have any questions and I'm ooking forward to hearing from you and starting a vocal journey!

Teaching Style
Teaching is a big part of my life and I love transmitting very much! The goal is to learn in a relaxed, precise and above all fun environment! I teach beginners to professionals, children to adults, singing for fun to singing professionally, from musical theater to jazz to pop to French chansons to free improvisation.
I design singing objectives with each student so we can work together towards your goals - whether that be to sing better in front of friends, preparing industry auditions or creating your original band or project which I have done a lot. The classes include vocal technique and interpretation, but can also integrate a focus on rhythm, improvisation, music theory ...depending on your desires! And of course, the classes can be in English or in French.
I also offer coaching and interpretation for the preparation of castings, shows and concerts.
Please don't hesitate if you have any questions!
