Performing
My greatest passion is performing. I sing primarily in English, Hebrew, Ladino and Yiddish. When I sing, no matter what the genre or language, I consider myself a vessel to something greater.
Voice lessons and coaching
After years of using my voice professionally, I dove into the mechanics of the voice, with the desire to improve my own technique and expression, and to help other budding singers with theirs.
