Hello all!

As you can see I was so inspired by Le Chiavi, but unfortunately I did not continue my posts on the subject.  However, other great things have happened to me in the meantime.  I have been accepted to OperaWorks Winter Intensive in January and am currently working on trying to raise the funds to go there with the website http://www.indiegogo.com.  They are a fantastic website and even though I created this campaign only a few days ago, I have already raised 6% of my funds!  Hey, that’s something, right?  So please check out my campaign and let me know what you think.  Please support because if we all support each other we can really get somewhere in this world.  Support this opera singer and you’ll be supporting the creative artist in you that is really going for every opportunity!!!!

Please go to my Link Page and click on the Link: Opera Career Development. Then peruse my page and support this campaign!

Best wishes!

I am very excited to continue working on this site.  Expect a finessed, updated biography soon as well as more pictures, recordings and additional information!  And not only that, hopefully updated of auditions, notifications as well as upcoming performances.  Exciting!

I hope to use this blog mainly as a resource for myself but hopefully provide information so if people are reading this, they can learn the upward struggle I will hopefully detail to get to where I want to be:  a consistently working professional opera singer, performing everywhere possible!  So I hope you enjoy all my frustrations, auditions, successes and failures as I try to share them all!

So far this year I have learned to really appreciate the little things when it comes to singing and performing.  Not being in school any longer and consistently performing, I don’t have the opportunity to get onstage as much as I’d like (the competition is fierce as Tyra Banks says).  Lately I feel like the only performing I have done is nervewracking auditions, where I regret every decision I have made afterwards.  So with each audition I have learned to take it slow, learn from each one in a positive way and try not to let it get to me.  So far it’s working!  My first two auditions of the New Year were very successful to me.  I feel like I really sang with my true voice and didn’t let the nerves get to me.  So here is to the ultimate goal of feeling good, no matter what!  That’s why I got into this crazy gig in the first place!!

Enjoy!
