I have PhD in Music and Voice Performance; Masters degrees in Voice Performance and English Literature and ATCL and LTCL Voice diplomas from the Trinity College, London. I have performed as a live and recording artist internationally. If you are familiar with Bollywood (Indian cinema), I have collaborated with A.R. Rahman, the Oscar-winning Indian film music composer of Slumdog Millionaire (2008); my voice features on several of his film soundtracks. With more than 20 years of experience teaching individuals and groups at the college, conservatory, and private studio levels, my students range from beginners to advanced levels. I teach all genres, however, I use the foundations of classical vocal technique because they ensure good posture, breathing, and vocal technique for life-long, healthy singing
