About Me

I've loved opera for as long as I can remeber- the drama, the passion, and the power of the human voice completely captivated me. I started taking voice lessons at the age of 10, and since then, singing has become not just a passion but a central part of who I am. The same year I started voice lessons, I was a part of the children's choir in Bizet's Carmen with OperaMaine. This experience made me realize that opera allows for a connection with music on an emotional level and an ability to express stories in a way that words alone cannot. Opera demands not just vocal excellence, but deep emotional strength, linguistic agility, and openmindedness. These demands ignited in me a desire not only to perform, but to understand opera on a deeper level. I am currently pursuing my Bachelor of Music in Classical Voice with an Honors minor at the University of Southern Maine’s Osher School of Music. As I am in my fourth year, I am looking forward to continuing my education through a graduate program for musicology and opera performance.
