"Hi, I'm Julia! I am a professional vocalist, actor, and music instructor. Have you always dreamed of taking voice lessons? Are you an experienced artist looking to hone your craft? Perhaps you're a parent who's searching for fun and encouraging music lessons for your child? No matter where you are on your musical journey, I'd love to work with you!

I hold a Bachelor's degree in Vocal Performance from the world-renowned Eastman School of Music, where I studied with Grammy award-winning mezzo-soprano Katherine Ciesinski. I approach teaching music with the fundamentals at the core of each lesson, however, I believe that the student should have the ability to express themselves through learning pieces of their choice, listening to a wide variety of artists and genres, and developing personal goals. I am passionate about sharing the gifts of music and theatre with my students, and I love working with beginners! My lessons are always engaging, full of laughter, and cohesive. I'm dedicated to helping you excel at whatever type of music you choose, from classical opera to Top 40 hits.

I am an experienced performer who has played many lead roles, including Cinderella in Rodgers and Hammerstein's Cinderella and Clara in The Light in the Piazza. As a Resident Artist at the 2024 Ohio Light Opera Company, I was cast as Maria in The Sound of Music and Tessa in Gilbert and Sullivan's, The Gondoliers. Because of my extensive performing experience, I am able to help with preparing for roles, upcoming auditions, or the next school talent show! I have experience teaching piano and guitar to children ages 4 and up and adults interested in solidifying the fundamentals. I am eager to help my students understand the building blocks of music so that they can utilize the knowledge and apply it in their future musical endeavors!

Please don't hesitate to reach out with any questions or to schedule a lesson! I look forward to helping you achieve your goals." less...
