I was not born knowing I wanted to pursue a career in music. In fact, I didn’t start singing until around 17 years old. I remember being incredibly shy and unable to use my voice even to express my basic wants and needs. While this seemed like a great inconvenience at the time, it has become my greatest strength as a teacher. I understand what it’s like not to know how to use your voice or to have difficulty communicating your ideas due to limited musical vocabulary.

My story is a bit unconventional, I did not begin singing in an academic setting. I remember feeling very lost about my identity and then I found the folkloric music from Colombia, my birth land. I started exploring the music of my ancestors and slowly began remembering who I was. In 2018, I auditioned to Berklee College of Music with a traditional song from the Inga Tribe from the Colombian Amazon. I was awarded a scholarship as a voice principal and began my academic journey towards understanding this profound healer we call Music. There, I refined my skills and studied with some of the most gifted and knowledgeable professors in music. While I hold deep regard for the knowledge acquired in these academic settings, I know it’s not necessary to be a true artist.

My methodology is holistic and integral. Through a precise combination of effective vocal technique, emotional research, and mental disposition, I help my students access the profound joy of singing as a therapeutic tool in their everyday lives.
