Hi, I’m Micaela!

I am a classically trained opera singer, but I have experience singing and performing in an endless number of genres. I am passionate about music and arts advocacy, exposing people to more types of music, and finding what they love the most.

My Approach to a Typical Lesson:

I do my best to set realistic goals, timelines, and plans that are personal to each student. I will spend time doing warm-ups, discussing music, going over previously assigned material, and then looking ahead for future assignments. I will always try to get my student started on their assignment ahead of time so it is already in their memory.

My Advice for Students:

Bring in music that you are passionate about, even if you don’t think you’re able to do it right now. I will work with you to find a way for you to learn it and perform it in a way that you’re proud of!

My Favorite Local Places:

  • South Mountain Reservoir
  • Millburn Deli
  • Metropolitan Opera

Three Tips for Success:

  1. Carve out a time to practice that is the same time every day.
  2. Start every practice session by thinking of what you want to accomplish during this time.
  3. Give yourself hard deadlines for learning music, memorization is always preferred!
